SETTING UP A NETWORK CONNECTION
In order to setup ICE TV or use the FTP service to transmit files to your
computer you must first setup a network connection with your router.
The connection can be a either a wireless or wired connection.
A wired connection will require an Ethernet cable to be connected to your
router. If you have a wireless router you will need to plug the supplied
Topfield Wireless USB dongle to the front or back of the unit as shown
below (or use the rear USB port).
Topfield Wireless USB dongle.

3. Create a new network profile by pressing the green button or OK
button.
You will now be prompted to select a network type. Move left and right
with the V- or V+ buttons. If you have a network cable running from
the TOPFIELD to your Router select the Wired LAN option. Other-
wise, select the Wireless LAN option.
If you haven’t plugged the wireless USB dongle into the TOPFIELD,
the Wireless LAN option will not be available.
WIRELESS LAN SETUP
1. Once you have chosen wireless LAN the Topfield will scan for the
available wireless networks/routers. Select your network/router
from the list by pressing OK.
2. Next choose your network security mode on your wireless router. The Top-
field only accepts two security modes: WPA or WEP. Scroll across to WEP
security by using the V–or V + buttons. If you selected WPA then scroll
down to WPA SHARED KEY and hit the OK button to enter your password.

3. An onscreen keyboard will pop up on the screen. Enter your password
using the P+ (UP), P- (Down), V- (left) and V+ (right) buttons on your
remote to move on the keyboard. Hit okay after each letter and then
save the password using the Blue Button on your remote.
4. Press the green button while the keyboard is on the screen to change
from upper to lowercase and once again to view additional
characters. Note : Password is case sensitive, input it exactly as your router
password.
5. Next select the IP Connection type you would like to setup. Either DHCP or
STATIC. Use V–or V+ to select Static.
A DHCP connection is the easiest route as the router will automatically
assign the Topfield with an IP address and all the relevant settings,
otherwise choose static. Ensure that DHCP is set to on/active/enabled in
your router settings.
A STATIC connection will require you to manually enter the following
settings into your TOPFIELD: A unique IP address, Subnet Mask,
Default Gateway and DNS options. These should match with the
configuration of your router. However, the Default Gateway should be
set to the local IP address of your router. Don’t forget to press the RED
button to save the new network profile. For further information regarding
static connection refer to your router user manual or contact the manufac
turer of your router.
6. If you select DHCP the TOPFIELD will fetch the IP address and other infor-
mation from your router. The following two screens should appear. With a
tick meaning it successfully connected to your router.

given the option to either setup a DHCP or Static connection.

dress and extra information from your router.
3. By using the V–and V+ buttons on your remove you can select the Static
connection type. Please read wireless static connection to connect this up.
4. A Wired connection from the router to the Topfield does not require a security
password setup.
TESTING YOUR NETWORK CONNECTION
1. After you have completed setting up a wired or wireless connection its impor-
tant to check that you have received a proper IP address and you can ping
your router. A Ping test is used to test the presence of an
active connection.
2. You can check your Topfield IP address settings by pressing the blue
button SHOW NETWORK INFORMATION.
TIP - If you use DHCP to initially setup a network connection you can then
make a note of all the address numbers shown and you can use the same
numbers to create a STATIC connection.

Press the SAT button on your remote and select YES to Network Ping
Test.
