is selected/highlighted by default. If SoftAP is currently OFF, press

on the Installer Remote to turn
SoftAP ON. When SoftAP is ON, the SoftAP access information, including the SSID and security key, is

Wi-Fi networks. Initiate the connection, and enter the security key as requested.
Once a device is connected successfully to the TV’s network, you can use it to access the Internet. Up
to five devices may be connected at a time; the Number of Connected Devices field in the SoftAP screen
shows the number of devices currently connected to the TV Wi-Fi access point.

A wired network connection MUST be established in order for guests to use SoftAP/Wi-Fi Service.
Also, the SoftAP/Wi-Fi Service feature may only be used while the TV is turned ON.
Note:
If the Wi-Fi frequency is not automatically detected, set the frequency in the device(s) to 2.4 GHz.
