To cause the radio to download a new stations’ list immediately, please remove and reconnect the power to your radio. -20- TROUBLESHOOTING 1. If you have trouble connecting the radio to your wireless network, these steps may help to resolve the problem: Confirm that a Wi-Fi or Ethernet Wired connected PC can access the internet (i.e. can browse the web) using the same network. Check that a DHCP server is available, or that you have configured a static IP address on the radio. Check that you firewall is not blocking any outgoing ports. As a minimum the radio needs access to UDP and TCP ports 80,554,1755,5000,and 7070. Some access points may be set so that only equipment with registered MAC addresses can connect to them. This is one possible cause of the Internet Radio being unable to connect to the Wi-Fi network, and the Internet Radio display will show Bad ESSID or key. To overcome this problem you will need to add the Internet Radio’s MAC address to the list of allowed equipment in your access point. The Internet Radio’s MAC address can be found using the menu item Configure->Network Config ->View Config -> MAC address. You will need to refer to the guide for you Access Point in order to enter the Internet Radio as an allowed piece of equipment. If you have an encrypted network, check that you have entered the correct key or passphrase into the radio. Remember that text-format keys are case sensitive. If your wireless network name(ESSID) is ‘Hidden’(a setting on the wireless access point), then you can either turn on the name, or you can manually enter the name into the internet radio and media player, Select Configure, Select network, Enter ESSID. Confirm if the Network is encrypted, e.g. requires a WEP or WPA key, then enter the network name. 2. If your radio can connect to the network successfully, but is unable to play particular stations, it may be due to one of the following reasons: The station is not broadcasting at this time of the day (remember it may be located in a different time zone). The station has too many people trying to attach to the radio station server and the server capacity is not large enough. The station has reached the maximum allowed number of simultaneous listeners. The station is not broadcasting anymore. The link on the radio is out of date. This is updated automatically every day, so the next time you turn on the link will be recognised. The internet connection between the server (often located in a different country)and you is slow. Some internet service providers may fail to stream in certain geographical areas. Try using a PC to play back the stream via the broadcaster’s web sit. If you can play back the station with a PC, use the form at http://www.reciva.com/station/add_station.asp to notify us so that we can change the station data that is used by the radio. If you have a laptop, try connecting it if your Internet Radio cannot find the station. 3. When you scan for PCS none can be found, or the PC you are looking for does not appear in the list: Global File sharing is not enabled on the PC. The PC you are looking for is in another part of the network separated by a router.(This may happen if you have two access points on the same network, and the Media source is on one Access Point and the internet Radio is on another). The PC with the Media content may not have the same workgroup as the server managing the network. The easiest solution is to change the PC workgroup name to the same as that being supported by the server. You have not connected to the wireless Access point. On the internet radio , select ‘Configure’, ‘Network Configure’, ‘Select Network’, ‘Scan’ and then select your Wireless network. (You may need to enter a security key to access the network wirelessly). You have not enabled simple file sharing on Windows 2000. In Windows 200 the simple file
-21- sharing can be turned on by going to the Control Pane, selecting Folder options, view Tab. The safest way for users to enable the service is to run the ‘Set up a home or small office network’ wizard from Control Panel, Network Connections. You have a firewall set on your PC which is stopping you accessing shared files. Windows 2K doesn’t come with a real firewall so unless you have installed one this should not be a problem. You have a third party firewall in your network, which is preventing file sharing. If you have a third party firewall (Like Norton, or Zone Alarm) that will have its own control panel and you will need to consult the manual for your firewall. If your PC is connected to a managed network, with a server sometimes the PC being searched for needs to be server Workgroup. 4. You can see the PC you want to play music from, but cannot find any folders on the PC: The folder which has your music in it is not shared. You will need to locate the file you want to share, right click on the folder, and select ‘Properties’, Then tick share this file. The folder is not in an accessible place, i.e. it is in, My music, My documents or on the Desktop. You will need to mode the folder to the root directory. You have entered the wrong user name or password for the PC account you are trying to access. Check and re-enter the user name and password, note the password is case sensitive. You have a firewall running which is preventing the internet radio from seeing the shared folder. As a quick check, you can disable firewalls like Norton to see if this overcomes the problem, if this resolves the issue then you can either leave the firewall off, or allow file sharing through the fire wall. Note: If you firewall is required to provide security for your system, it should not be left off. Note: Although you can share a CD drive, you cannot stream music directly from the drive. 5. Whenever I enter my media folder , the internet radio rescans the content of the folder: Although the folder with your music in it is shared , it is ‘write protected’, so the Internet Radio cannot save a list of the folder’s content back onto the PC, as it needs to rescan each time. Tick the box that allows the Folder to be modified across the network. 6. Although I can see my music files in the folder, I cannot play them and the Internet Radio says they are ‘Protected’: When you copied the music files to the hard drive you had ‘Personal Rights management’ turned on, this protects the files from being played by a third party device like the Internet Radio, you will need to copy the music files again, but with the protection turned off. You are trying to play I-Tune files which have been purchased from the I-Tunes on line store, these are protected and can only be played on an I-Pod. Locally created or ‘ripped’ files for I-Pods can be played as they do not carry the extra layer of Media Protection. 7. I can access the PC with my Media, but when I change to the Use Account, I cannot see the folder , although it is shared when I check my PC: The Alternative account on the machine may be Private. If when the account was created, the ‘Make this account Private’ option was selected, then the contents of this account cannot be seen over the network. You will need to move the music to an accessible account. 8. I can’t share a folder , as the option is not highlighted: The share folder option will not be available until you have turned simple file sharing on. Run the wizard. Scan Error: When the internet radio is scanning the content of the folders on a PC, it is possible that a scan error may occur if the windows file sharing application times out. This is most likely to occur if both the PC with the media content and the Internet Radio are connected wirelessly. Try re-connecting the PC with the media content into the network via cable. This will dramatically -22- increase the speed at which the Internet Radio is able to scan the content of the Media PC. Playlists: Some media ripping applications allow ‘Playlists’ to be created. The Internet Radio is able to detect and stream these playlists, but they must be stored in the folder with the rest of the Media content and they must have the file extension.m3u. Windows Media player can create suitable playlist, just select ‘create new playlist’, drag and drop the tracks you want into the playlist, then use ‘Save as’ to ensure the file type is .m3u. (Existing play lists can be opened and re-saved in this format) When the Internet Radio detects you have playlists, it will enable a new menu option allowing the playlist to be selected and added to the queue. If you re-connect to another PC of folder, which does not have any Playlists in the .m3u. format, the playlist option will not be presented in the menu. 9. If the Internet Radio keeps re-buffering radio station: The Internet Radio is streaming the data from the radio station via your broadband connection, if there is a high error rate on your broadband connection, or the connection is intermittent, then it will cause the Internet Radio to pause until the connection is re-established and it has received enough data to start playing again. If your Internet Radio keeps stopping, please check the DSL modem to ensure that the Broadband line is not suffering a high error rate or disconnections. If you are experiencing these problems, you will need to contact your broadband supplier. 10. What is Buffering? When playing a stream, the Internet Radio/Media player, downloads a small amount of the stream before it starts playing. This is used to fill in any gaps in the stream that may occur if the internet or the wireless network is busy. The Internet Radio streams music data from the PC while you are listening. If a stream gets blocked or experiences Internet congestion while transferring it may stop/interfere with the quality of play. If this happens, check your internet connection speed- it must be faster than the speed of the streams.
