Network Troubleshooting
If you cannot see or connect to Fusion PartyBus™ devices on the network, perform these steps.

Verify that wireless
Fusion PartyBus devices are connected to a wireless router or wireless access point on the network.
NOTE: Wired connections are more reliable than wireless connections. If possible, you should connect devices to the network using an Ethernet cable.
- Verify that only one device, either a stereo or a router, is configured as a DHCP server.
-
Change the channel on your router or wireless access point to test for and correct interference.
You may experience wireless interference if there are many nearby wireless access points.
-
Disconnect
Bluetooth® devices to test for and correct interference.
Connecting a Bluetooth device to a stereo configured as a wireless access point or client may reduce wireless performance.
-
If you are experiencing trouble connecting, make sure your router supports 2.4 GHz band connections.
When connecting to a wireless router, this device is compatible with only 2.4 GHz band connections, and cannot connect to a 5 GHz band.
- If you configured static IP addresses, verify that every device has a unique IP address, that the first three sets of numbers in the IP addresses match, and that the subnet masks on every device are identical.
- If you have made configuration changes that might be causing networking issues, reset all network settings to the factory default values.
