From SpinetiX Support Wiki
Applies to HMP400W and third-party players using DSOS 4.6.0 or later.

Introduction
The HMP400W and third-party players using DSOS have a built-in wireless network interface controller and can connect to Wi-Fi networks - for that, you need to configure the player's access to the local wireless network. This page describes how to connect to the player's built-in Wi-Fi access point from a smartphone or computer to select the Wi-Fi network and provide the Wi-Fi password for WPA-Personal or WPA-Enterprise.

- This mechanism is only active on a player with firmware 4.6.0 or later that has not yet been configured - for instance, after doing a reset to factory default settings or after flashing the firmware from Recovery mode. Once the player is configured to access a wireless network, this mechanism is deactivated for security reasons.
- For players with firmware 4.5.x, either connect them to the wired network and update the firmware or use the network configurator tool and a USB stick to set up the Wi-Fi network details.
- For more advanced Wi-Fi WPA-Enterprise configurations please refer to the 802.1X Port-Based Network Access Control page.
Getting started

- Install the player's Wi-Fi antennas, if necessary.
- Connect the player to a display (using HDMI or DisplayPort cable).
- Connect the player to the power supply and wait for the player to boot up.
- At this point, an unconfigured player will automatically turn on its built-in Wi-Fi access point.
- For a player that is not connected to the wired network, the splash screen shows the wireless network name and password, for instance:

- The Wi-Fi network of the player is named with the player model (HMP400 or DSOS) and its serial number.
- The wireless LED on the HMP400W should be blinking yellow indicating that the player accepts a Wi-Fi configuration.
- If the player is connected to the wired network, then you can get the information above by briefly pressing its power/blue button. And you can also use the network configurator tool to set up the Wi-Fi network details.
Configuration
Next, you need to connect to the player access point and configure its access to your local wireless network, following the steps detailed below, according to the type of device you are using.
Windows-based
- Turn on the WiFi on your laptop, tablet, etc.
- Open the list of wireless networks in range and select the one of the player.
- Click the "Connect" button.
- Under the network security key, enter the password displayed on the screen (including the dashes!).
- Click "Next" and wait for the Wi-Fi configuration page to be automatically opened in your browser.
- In case it doesn't open, type http://dsos.link in your browser.
- Enter your local wireless network details (SSID, username, password, etc.) in there.
- If needed, you can configure a static IPv4 address.
- Click the "Apply" button and wait for the player to reboot.

Mobile devices
- Turn on the phone camera and scan the QR code.
- Click on the popup that appears and then click the "Join" button.
- Go to your device settings, Wi-Fi section.
- A "Log In" page is displayed.
- In case that doesn't happen, type http://dsos.link in your mobile's browser.
- Enter your local wireless network details (SSID, username, password, etc.) in there.
- If needed, you can configure a static IPv4 address.
- Click the "Apply" button and wait for the player to reboot.
Final steps
Upon restart, the player will connect to the local wireless network and the splash screen will display something like this:If you have purchased a DSOS license for your HMP400W player, follow these steps to activate that license.
Otherwise,
- Open https://arya.spinetix.cloud/setup in a browser.
- Add the player to your SpinetiX ARYA™ account.
- Finish setting up the player.

- The wireless LED on the HMP400W should be solid green indicating that the player is configured for Wi-Fi and fully connected.
- To find out the player address, briefly click its power/blue button.
Add more Wi-Fi networks
Although adding multiple Wi-Fi networks from the same location is not recommended, as the player might lock onto one that doesn't have a strong signal, there are however cases when this might be needed, for instance, when you want to configure a wireless network that is not currently in range, like one at a different location or a mobile hotspot (useful for troubleshooting). For that follow these steps:
- Use the network configurator tool to configure each new wireless network - make sure to enable each time the option to keep previously configured Wi-Fi networks. A configuration file is generated for each wireless network.
- Connect to the Control Center.
- If the player is already in ARYA, you need to remove it from ARYA, to get access to its Control Center.
- Restore each configuration file.
