I.D. AL - My Music Player - Audio Player - User manual
8 - Ethernet
Via the Ethernet link, the My Music Player communicates either to
update content via FTP (SD card, USB stick or HDD) or to receive
commands in html Web server and check status and configuration
of the player.
You can use the player in a local network. An adequately
configured Modem/Router will allow remote control of the player
via the Internet.
Caution! Network administration requires good computer skills.
In a local network installation, the player requires an IP address. This address is set in the Option menu
(see option menu chapter). The player is then recognized on the network as a Web Server with "Internet
Explorer" or "Firefox" browsers as well as a FTP server with a FTP software such as Filezilla or as FTP
client to download files from a remote server.
In an installation where only the player is present or in a local network with external access, you must
use a Modem/Router to create a gateway between the player and the Internet.
Since the Modem/Router is configured with an IP gateway, you must declare this gateway to the My
Music Player so it can communicate outside (to be configured in the Option menu).
Note: My Music Player offers a DHCP mode to get an IP address automatically.
