Digital Entertainer Elite EVA9000/9150 User Manual
7-8 Maintenance and Troubleshooting
v1.0, March 2009
Move the Digital Entertainer Elite closer to the wireless access point or router. See “Wireless
Range and Interference” on page 7-8.
If there is more than one network in your area, then you must know the network name. The
network name is also called the service set identifier (SSID).
If your access point or router does not broadcast its SSID, then it is a hidden network, and the
Digital Entertainer Elite cannot detect it.
The SSID, and passwords keys are case-sensitive. For example, NETGEAR is not the
same as Netgear.
You must manually enter your wireless settings as described in “Setting Up Network
Shares” on page 6-7.
For detailed information about wireless networks, see “Wireless Networking Basics” listed in
Appendix B, “Related Documents.”
Wireless Range and Interference
Wireless networks have one or more access points or routers that send out wireless signals. The
distance that the signal travels is the wireless range. Interference can block a wireless signal.
The strength and range of the wireless signal depend on the equipment used. As you move the
Digital Entertainer Elite away from an access point or router, you could lose your wireless
connection.
The following can cause interference and prevent you from connecting to a wireless network:
Large metal surfaces
Microwave ovens
2.4 GHz cordless phones
Aquariums or large fish tanks
Walls built with concrete or metal
Wireless Networking Tips
Wireless networks can be subject to intermittent outages due to interference and other environment
factors such as distance and construction materials.
Here are some tips for setting up a more robust wireless network for your media:
A wireless 802.11g or 802.11 n network can generally support at most a single HD
transmission. For best results with HD video, use a wired network.
