Using Wireless Direct, this unit can operate as a wireless
network access point that mobile devices can directly
connect to.

connect to any other wireless router (access point). To play back contents
from the Internet, connect this unit to a network with a wired router or
wireless router (access point).

WIRELESS switch on the unit must first be set to "OFF" while the unit is

"AUTO".
• If you do not have either a wired router or a wireless router (access
point), you can specify the unit settings from a web browser by
