Re: Software Upgrade and Internet Radio

2007-06-22 by jheitzeb1

I'm sorry you had  trouble with your upgrade, but sounds like your  pocket controller does 
work, right?

I installed v2.0 without  a problem.   I have a few questions for you:

(1)  When you look at your pocket controller,  do you see the new screens for "internet" 
connection on the pocket controller?

(2) If  so, are you using the recommended  extra buffalo equipment  to transmit the 
wireless signal?   It is my understanding you need these to be able to access wirelessly.  I 
am using a Macintosh  and have not purchased the buffalo devices as yet.  

(3)  If  you don't have the buffalo  devices for wireless connectivity (one on  your router 
and one on  the disklavier) then you can try connecting via ethernet cable from a  
computer to the disklavier  itself directly.  This will let you try out the disklavier radio  and 
internet connection.

(4)  You could also  try  out the feature of to/from  folder wirelessly.  This did work for me.  
I was able to transfer midis to/from my  computer to my  disklavier harddrive folder 
without a problem.

I  have also seen in this forum, to retry the v 2.0 install again or call  support and they 
maybe able to walk you thru some of this.

Hope this helps. 
Joan
