Troubleshooting ™:  AT&T Uverse™ users may not be able to listen to WIOS Windows Media™ stream with the Motorola™ 2210-02-1ATT modem due to un-configurable port blocking.  There is NO work-around for this modem.  Uverse™ users using a 2Wire 2701HGV-B for their HSI ADSL2/2+ service can use the internal routing settings to permit passthrough for port 1755 to listen to the WIOS Windows Media stream.  If a Motorola™ Netopia™ modem came with your Uverse™ setup, configure it like the 2701HGV-B to allow port 1755 passthrough.  AT&T™ standard DSL users, Radio Wireless and Cable ISP systems should work normally with no DMZ or port passthrough needed in the router/modem.  Please consult your ISP if you are have problems listening to WIOS online.  Symantec™ End Point Protection users must disable "Enable Stealth Web Browsing" under "Network Threat Protection" to listen to Windows Media streaming.  Windows Media Player™ polls the encoder at the server for the the bit rate and version number, and SEP does not permit the polling to occur if "Stealth Browsing" is enabled.  This is a known issue with SEP and no work-around is available except to "turn off" the stealth browsing mode.  "Stealth Web Browsing" may be featured in other anti-virus software including Symantec™ products like Norton Anti-Virus™.  Users are advised to check their anti-virus settings that may block Windows Media™ streams.  This affects all Windows Media™ streams.  If Windows Media Player™ experiences garbled reception make sure that "download codecs automatically" is selected under Tools/Options/Player tab, choose "Once a Day", "Once a Week", or "Once a Month", depending on your preference.  Other times when WIOS cannot be heard may be due to unavailable network resources, ISP failure, or Windows Media Encoder™ may have crashed on our end due to overload of the server by exceeding 99 users.  If you are still having difficulty receiving the WIOS stream after following these troubleshooting steps, feel free to contact Carroll Broadcasting at 989-362-3417 to let us know you are having reception problems so we may make certain the streaming broadcast is being sent from our studio.  We can only give limited advice regarding your computer or Wi-Fi radio set, we do not provide support for the Microsoft™ streaming client, we only support the server (broadcast) end of the stream but we will be happy to help whenever we can.  If you are still having problems, feel free to contact your nearest computer expert for assistance. 

Streaming Technical:  WIOS uses WME9 on port 1755 and Windows Media™ proprietary AAC codec with a 40Kbps bit rate for the stream.  Users will see a bit rate of up to 40Kbps at 32kHz (FM quality) in Windows Media Player.  Android phone users will see bit rates between 30Kbps-40Kbps when using the TuneIn Radio app for Android.  We have ceased providing multicasts in different bit rates to prevent router congestion and streaming lock-ups on our end.  The audio stream is broadcast in dual mono direct from our AM modulation monitor, you are hearing the same signal that is being broadcast over the air (audio processing included).  If you have an exceptionally good AM receiver with full 10kHz IF bandwidth, you will experience a hi-fidelity frequency response closely approximating that of the streaming service.  WIOS's music is digitally "cleaned" and equalized to provide removal of most analog noise, clicks and pops along with crisper highs and deeper lows on older recordings where that range had been previously restricted.
