Setting the Fusion PartyBus Device as a Wireless Access Point

Before you can connect additional Fusion PartyBus™ devices or smartphones to a Fusion PartyBus device wirelessly, you must configure one device as a wireless access point. This is not necessary if you installed a wireless router or other wireless access point on the network.

NOTE: You should not configure this device as a wireless access point if you have a router installed on the network. Doing so may introduce DHCP conflicts and result in poor network performance.

Select > SETTINGS > NETWORK > WI-FI ACCESS POINT.
Select an option:
- To use factory-assigned default access point settings, select USE DEFAULTS, and wait for the device to save the network settings.
  
  NOTE: After the default settings are saved, you can scroll down to the bottom of the NETWORK menu to view the SSID and password assigned to the access point.
- To customize the access point name and security settings, select ADVANCED, and proceed to the next step.
Select SSID, and change the default SSID, or name, for the wireless access point.
Select AP SECURITY, and change the security type for the access point.

NOTE: It is strongly recommended that you use the WPA2 PERSONAL AP SECURITY setting. It is the most widely-used and secure wireless security protocol.
Select PASSWORD, and change the default password for the access point.
If necessary, select COUNTRY, and select your region.
Select CHANNEL, and select a channel range for the access point (optional).
Select SAVE.

You can adjust the wireless access point configuration at any time (Wireless Access Point Settings).

NOTE: When you configure the stereo as a wireless access point, you can also use the wired network connection without changing any additional settings. The wired and wireless networks are bridged.
