■ Connecting to the network
To connect this unit to your network, plug one end of a network cable (CAT-5 or higher straight cable) into the
NETWORK port of this unit, and plug the other end into one of the LAN ports on your router that supports the DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server function. The following diagram shows a connection example where this
unit is connected to one of the LAN ports on a 4-port router. To enjoy music files saved on your PC and Yamaha MCX-
2000, access the Internet Radio, or control this unit by using your PC, each device must be connected properly in the
network.
• You must use an STP (shielded twisted pair) cable (commercially available) to connect a network hub or router and this unit.
• If the DHCP server function on your router is disabled, you need to configure the network settings manually (page 84).
• Yamaha MCX-2000, MCX-A10 and MCX-C15 may not be for sale in some locations.
