14 15To connect DS6800W to a Wi-Fi router manually, you need access to DS6800W’s built-in configuration web page for change of its internal Wi-Fi settings. To do so, you need a Wi-Fi enabled device with an Internet browser 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 15).2 Switch DS6800W to Assisted Wi-Fi Setup mode (see ‘Switch DS6800W to Assisted Wi-Fi Setup mode’ on page 15).A new Wi-Fi network created by DS6800W will appear, with the network name (SSID) of Philips Fidelio AirPlay.3 Connect your Wi-Fi enabled device to the created new Wi-Fi network temporarily (see ‘Connect your Wi-Fi enabled device to the newly created Wi-Fi network’ on page 15).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 17).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 18).6 Restore your Wi-Fi enabled device back to your existing home Wi-Fi settings (see ‘Restore your Wi-Fi enabled device back to your existing home Wi-Fi setting’ on page 20).» TipFor 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 configuration pages.
