4.3 For deeper understanding: about routers, SSID, MAC & IPs
You will come across a number of the following topics automatically when integrating your NOXON iRadio.
Together with the glossary in the appendix, these brief explanations will give you a better understanding for
making decisions with regard to your network settings. A number of items are only relevant in connection
with wireless networks. We will continue with the actual configuration in “
4.4 Before setup: network pro-
files”.
Setting up the router options
For this purpose, you must be sufficiently familiar with the router—or its administrator—to change its con-
figuration and understand its overall handling. Normally, these devices use Web interfaces for their admini-
stration. In other words, you only need to enter a specific address (e.g. 192.168.0.1) in your Web browser
for it to display a convenient user interface giving you access to all of the router's options.
As an example an administration interface of a router.
Hello, here we are: SSID broadcast (WLAN).
As explained in the technical glossary, the abbreviation SSID stands for the network name sent out to all
wireless network devices within range, informing them of the presence of a network with this identification.
Some routers, however, have an option to suppress the broadcast of the network name. The option is a
toggle that is usually called SSID Broadcast. If the broadcast is disabled, you must know the name in order
to enter it manually when setting up the iRadio.
To identify or not to identify: the MAC address.
The so-called MAC address is a unique identifier assigned to all network devices. The MAC address is per-
manently assigned to the device and cannot be modified. They can therefore be used to configure routers to
permit only devices with specific MAC addresses to access the network or the Internet.
In such a case, it will be necessary to configure the router with the NOXON's MAC address so that it will be
able to establish a network connection. The address can be found on a label on the back of the iRadio.
