Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
Exact VSX-935 and the owner’s intended wired or Wi-Fi connection are known. No router security changes, credential submission to Audio Fix or factory reset are required.
Connection scope: Wi-Fi / Ethernet network audio. Symptom: Network audio setup is not working.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at scope. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
scope
Confirm the exact setup
Exact VSX-935 and the owner’s intended wired or Wi-Fi connection are known. No router security changes, credential submission to Audio Fix or factory reset are required.
Look for: Confirm the stated setup or visible result. Stop if it is unknown.
- If Yes, confirmed → Read the connection mode
- If No / my setup differs → Keep the observation for support
- If I cannot confirm → Confirm the unknown detail first

Allow the network function to start
The manual notes network functions may take about one minute to become available. Observe NET and the connection status. If still disconnected, retain that state rather than resetting the router.
Look for: Observe an established status or the specific remaining failure.

Possible result
Checks completed — report the actual outcome
The stated observation was confirmed in this setup. Completion is not an automatic Solved report, a hardware diagnosis or a physical Audio Review test.
steps completed
Reaching this result does not mean the issue is solved. Only your own feedback can report improvement.
Possible result
Keep the observation for support
Record the exact model, source, connection and last visible result. Do not reset equipment, open its chassis, bypass protective limits or install firmware to compensate for an unconfirmed result.
next support
Reaching this result does not mean the issue is solved. Only your own feedback can report improvement.
Possible result
Confirm the unknown detail first
An unknown indication is not a diagnosis. Check the exact instructions or ask the manufacturer before continuing.
