4 Connect to

your home Wi-

Fi network for

AirPlay

To connect DS6800W to your existing home

Wi-Fi network, you need to apply your home

Wi-Fi setting to DS6800W.

You can do this in two ways (depending on

which type of Wi-Fi router you use):

• Automatically - if your Wi-Fi router is

WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)-enabled

and supports PBC (Push Button

Connection) (see 'Scenario 1: Connect

to a WPS router' on page 9 )

• Manually - if your Wi-Fi router does

not support WPS (see 'Scenario 2:

Connect to a non-WPS router' on

page 10 )

Once connected successfully, DS6800W will

remember your home Wi-Fi settings. Then

you can enjoy AirPlay whenever DS6800W is

powered on and connected to your home Wi-

Fi network automatically.

Before connection of DS6800W to you home

Wi-Fi network, check the points below.

1 Make sure that your Wi-Fi router is

powered on and working properly.

2 Make sure that DS6800W has been

powered on and booted up successfully

(see 'Turn DS6800W on' on page 8 ) .

3 Identify the type of your Wi-Fi router (see

the user manual of your Wi-Fi router for

details).

Scenario 1: Connect to a

WPS router

Note

• Before you press any button on DS6800W, make sure

that DS6800W has been booted up successfully (see

'Turn DS6800W on' on page 8 ) .

1 Press the WPS button on your home Wi-Fi

router.

2 Shortly after step 1, press Wi-Fi SETUP on

the back of the main speaker.

» The Wi-Fi SETUP indicator blinks red,

yellow and green alternately.

» Within 2 minutes, the WI-FI SETUP

indicator stops blinking and stays green,

and the unit beeps.

» DS6800W is connected to your home

Wi-Fi network successfully.

Tip

• For some Wi-Fi routers, you may need to hold the

WPS button for Wi-Fi connection or enable the WPS

PBC function from the router con guration pages. See

the user manuals of the speci c routers for details.

• If the Wi-Fi SETUP indicator on DS6800W blinks

yellow, it means that the Wi-Fi connection has failed.

Please wait for 2 minutes and try again. If the problem

remains, try to set up the Wi-Fi connection manually

(see 'Scenario 2: Connect to a non-WPS router' on

page 12 ) .

• If the Wi-Fi connection fails again, press and hold on

the main speaker to reset it, and then try again.

Scenario 2: Connect to a

non-WPS router

Note

• You can also follow the procedures below to connect

DS6800W to a WPS router manually.

To connect DS6800W to a Wi-Fi router

manually, you need access to DS6800W's

built-in con guration web page for change of

its internal Wi-Fi settings. To do so, you need a

Wi-Fi enabled device with an Internet browser

WI-FI

SETUP

for temporary Wi-Fi connection to DS6800W.

The Wi-Fi enabled device can be an iPod touch/

iPhone/iPad or a Wi-Fi enabled PC/Mac.

Follow the sequence below for connection of

DS6800W to a non-WPS Wi-Fi router.

1 Collect settings of your home Wi-Fi router

and write down on paper for use during

DS6800W Wi-Fi setup (see 'Collect

settings of your home Wi-Fi router' on

page 10 ) .

2 Switch DS6800W to Assisted Wi-Fi Setup

mode (see 'Switch DS6800W to Assisted

Wi-Fi Setup mode' on page 11 ) .

» A new Wi-Fi network created by

DS6800W will appear, with the

network name (SSID) of Philips Fidelio

AirPlay .

created new Wi-Fi network temporarily

(see 'Connect your Wi-Fi enabled device

to the newly created Wi-Fi network' on

page 11 ) .

4 Open the built-in web page of DS6800W

with the Internet Browser of your Wi-Fi

enabled device (see 'Open the built-in web

page of DS6800W' on page 13 ) .

5 Change the internal Wi-Fi settings of

DS6800W based on the settings you

wrote on paper at step 1 (see 'Change the

internal Wi-Fi settings of DS6800W' on

page 14 ) .

8 Troubleshooting

Warning

• Never remove the casing of this apparatus.

To keep the warranty valid, never try to repair

the system yourself.

If you encounter problems when using this

apparatus, check the following points before

requesting service. If the problem remains

unsolved, go to the Philips web site (www.

philips.com/welcome). When you contact

Philips, ensure that the apparatus is nearby

and the model number and serial number are

available.

No power

• Make sure that the AC power plug of the

device is connected properly.

• Make sure that there is power at the AC

outlet.

No sound

• Adjust the volume.

• Check the network connection. Set up the

network again if needed (see 'Connect to

your home Wi-Fi network for AirPlay' on

page 9 ) .

• Check if you have selected the correct

audio source.

No response from the unit

• Press and hold on DS6800W for more

than 5 seconds to reset the device. Then

set up the Wi-Fi network for DS6800W

again (see 'Connect to your home Wi-Fi

network for AirPlay' on page 9 ) .

• Disconnect and reconnect the AC power

plug, and then switch on the device again.

Remote control does not work

• Before you press any function button,  rst

select the correct source with the remote

control instead of the main unit.

• Reduce the distance between the remote

control and the unit.

• Insert the battery with its polarities (+/–

signs) aligned as indicated.

• Replace the battery.

• Aim the remote control directly at the IR

sensor on the front of the main speaker.

Wi-Fi network connection failed

• Check if your Wi-Fi router is Wi-Fi 802.11b/g

certi ed. This device is only compatible with

Wi-Fi 802.11b/g certi ed routers.

• If your Wi-Fi router is Wi-Fi 802.11n

certi ed, make sure to enable the 802.11b/g

mode. DS6800W does not support

connection to routers with 802.11n only.

• This device does not support the WPS-

PIN method.

• If your Wi-Fi router supports WPS and

the WPS-PBC method but fails to connect

to DS6800W, try the manual Wi-Fi setup

method (see 'Scenario 2: Connect to a

non-WPS router' on page 10 ) .

• Enable SSID broadcast on the Wi-Fi router.

• Keep away from potential sources of

interference which may affect Wi-Fi signal,

such as microwave ovens.

• If you fail to use your PC for Wi-Fi network

setup, check whether your PC is using a

Wi-Fi network. You cannot use Ethernet

connection for AirPlay network setup.

• Make sure that the SSID name of your

home router consists of alphanumeric

characters, with no space or special

characters like %/#/* inserted.

• If you choose to rename the AirPlay device

' Philips_Fidelio XXXX ' in the setting menu,

do not use special characters or symbols.

• For some new types of Wi-Fi routers, a

network name (SSID) may be created

automatically when you use WPS for

connection. Always change the default

network name (SSID) to a simple one that

consists of alphanumerical characters, and

also change the Wi-Fi security mode to

secure your network.

Occasional breaking of AirPlay music

streaming

Do one or all of the following:

• Move DS6800W closer to your Wi-Fi

router.

• Remove any obstacles between DS6800W

and your Wi-Fi router.

• Avoid using Wi-Fi channel which is

overlapped by the nearby Wi-Fi network.

• Check if your network speed is fast enough

(in cases where multiple devices share the

same router, the AirPlay performance may

be affected). Turn off the other devices

connected to your home router.

• Enable the Quality of Service (QoS)

option (if available on the Wi-Fi router).

• Turn off other Wi-Fi routers.

No AirPlay icon on my iTunes host device

• Make sure that DS6800W is already

connected to your home Wi-Fi network.

• Before you open iTunes, make sure that

you have enabled Bonjour service in

your PC. Take Windows XP for example:

to enable the service, you can click

Start -> Control Panel , and double-click

Administrative Tools -> Services -> Bonjour

Service , then click Start followed by OK

on the pop-up menu.

• If the problem remains, try to restart

DS6800W.

AirPlay connection failed with Mac or PC

• Temporarily disable the  rewall and

security software to see whether it blocks

the ports that AirPlay uses to stream

content. See the help documentation of

your  rewall and security software on how

to unblock the ports used by AirPlay.

• When you use iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad/

Mac/PC for AirPlay, if the music play breaks

or stops, try to restart your iPod Touch/

iPhone/iPad, iTunes or DS6800W.

• Video streaming or FTP downloads may

overload your router and therefore may

cause interruptions during AirPlay music

play. Try to reduce the load of your router.
