Internet Radio – A Complete Guide

What is internet radio?

Internet radio is ‘broadcast’ using the Internet as the connection to the radio rather than radio waves. Conventional AM/FM radio is broadcast using transmitters at fixed locations. The further that the radio is from the transmitter, the weaker the signal becomes until beyond a certain distance and as a result, the station cannot be heard.

What do I need to listen to radio stations?

The basic requirement to use internet radio is that you have a broadband Internet connection to your home (or wherever you intend to use the internet radio).

As all of our internet radios have wireless capability, you can take the internet radio wherever you like (providing it is within reception of a wireless internet access point). If you do not have wireless internet access, but have broadband, you can still use an internet radio by plugging it into one of your internet access points using a standard RJ-45 cable (usually the same cable that your PC will therefore use to gain access to the internet) making it ideal for home and office. All internet radios are simply “plug and play”.

How do I set up the internet radio?

If you are using the radio with a wireless network, you may be prompted to enter a security code to gain access to the wireless network (Common practice to prevent unauthorized wireless access). This is also known as the “wireless network key”.

If you are in an office, contact your IT helpdesk for the “wireless network key”.

If you are using the internet radio with your own wireless access point and you have the WPA/WEP security enabled for your wireless connection, you will need to enter the “wireless network key” the first time your radio connects to the network (the same security key as your computer) you will only need to enter the ‘key’ in once. The radio will store this information for future use on this network.

Most standard wireless internet access points, for example the Orange Livebox or other A/DSL routers, have the default WPA/WEP key printed on the manual or internal packaging. It sounds complicated, but all you need to do is input this key and you’re away.

What internet stations are available?

Contrary to popular belief finding internet radio stations is easy…

You can now access nearly 20,000 radio stations from all over the world. These stations cover every type of radio broadcast imaginable; Music, Talk, Sport, Religion, Kids. You name it you will probably find it.

How do I get the stations I want to listen to?

When you buy an internet radio you will find that the radio will already be set up to link to one of the internet radio providers such as Reciva who already have 1000′s of stations on their portal. When you connect your radio to your wireless network it will automatically gain access to these stations and you can listen straight away.

You can then browse these stations via your internet radio. The internet radio manufacturers have made this very easy for you and you can see on the built in display all the information you need. You can search by:

* Genre (Music Style, News etc)

* Country/Location

* Preset Favorites

If you like you can take a chance and browsing around the countries/locations is great fun and you never know what you might find.

What if I can’t find a station I want on my internet radio?

If there is a station you find on the Internet that is not listed on your internet radio then you can contact the portal and request that your station is added to the list.

Besides searching via your internet radio you can search on the internet directly as all internet radio stations have their own websites.

So if you wanted to search for ‘Country Music’ stations simply type it into any search engine and you will come across all relevant links to ‘Country Music’ stations. You can then get the website address and contact your internet radio portal operator who will add that station to their portal.

What is a Podcast?

It is becoming difficult to ignore the growing trend of podcasting. The boom of MP3 players really took off in 2001 with the release of Apple’s iPod. The iPod ushered in a new way to listen to music, and many others followed. There are currently hundreds of different MP3 players on the market today, and they have become a common possession among both young and old. Podcasting became popular in 2004 and nowadays you can find it on a huge amount of websites. Despite this popularity, many people are finding themselves thinking “But what is it? Where can I do it? What equipment do I need?” If you too are feeling a little lost about it all, then read on…

The word ‘Podcast’ is a mix of the words ‘iPod’ and ‘broadcast’. This has lead many people into believing that you need an iPod to be able to access podcasts, but they would be mistaken. You do not need an iPod – nor any other MP3 player – to podcast, or listen to a podcast for that matter. All you need is some audio-playing software on your computer, and of course, some form of device to allow you to hear it. The majority of people have both speakers and some form of audio-playing software – step one accomplished.

Podcasting is a type of online media delivery, but different to any that have existed previously. Put simply, podcasting allows you to download files via a feed (such as RSS) onto your computer and MP3 player. These files can be music, talk shows, interviews, discussions, news… the list is endless. However, there is more to it than that: The significant characteristic about podcasting is that you can subscribe to a series so that it automatically downloads on to your computer and MP3 player. Many believe that it is for this feature that podcasting became so popular in 2004.
