Click into Network and select Wi-Fi or Ethernet (whichever has the green circle).Go to Settings>Wi-Fi & then press the (i) next to the network name.So, now that you have had a refresher on IP Addresses, let’s go find them! Turn on your router that you are using and connect to your network with a device. This is also set by your router and is usually ‘255.255.255.0’. Subnet Mask is the next thing you need to know. This is one reason you should ALWAYS have your network secured! The X32 & M32 allow for 10 remote devices to be connected to it at the same time, so having a limit of 253 devices on your network should not be a problem. This leaves 253 IP Addresses available to use for the network. Most of the routers that are in use out there will make a Class C network which will give 256 addresses. For this example, I am going to use a router with an address of 192.168.1.1. The IP address range is set by your router, the most basic off the shelf routers will have an IP address itself of 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1. The most common network addresses that we see are between the ranges of IP address stands for Internet Protocol Address, specifically IPv4, and is a numerical address for each device on a network. The most important part of the networking side of the X32 are the addresses. The network for the X32 is using the same technology as your computer or laptop. If you wanted to add more ports to connect more devices, you would use the network switch. We typically will find a ‘wireless router’ to not only allow physical connections with network cables but also allow wireless devices like phones or tablets to connect as well.Ī network switch gives the ability to expand the physical network connections as your wireless router will have 4 LAN ports on it. With the X32 we can use CAT5, CAT5e, and CAT6 cables for the network interface.Ī router is the device that gives out IP addresses to everything on the network and is the main brains of the network.

A CAT5e cable stands for the type of network cable it is. Router, Switch, Cables?!īefore we get too far, we need to talk about the devices that we use to get our network going!Ī network in the old days was only connected with network cables, what we refer to as CAT5e cables. You cannot listen to audio from the X32 through your phone. Having the Behringer X32 and Midas M32 connected to a network will give a lot of flexibility that you wouldn’t have without it.įYI, back in the day, it was called X-Control and Xi-Control!!įirst let’s get one thing straight, while the iPhone, iPad and Android apps can ‘adjust’ the monitor mix, it cannot monitor or listen to this mix. I have seen and received a lot of questions about getting the X32 connected to a network to be able to use X32-Edit, X32-Mix, and X32-Q.
