Ethernet Setup
An Ethernet connection allows your TV to be upgraded if a software upgrade is
available. Connect your TV to a router and cable modem via the ETHERNET
jack. Then, go to the
Software Upgrade
menu to see if a software upgrade is
available. If you have a NAT (Network Address Translation) /PAT (Port Address
Translation) component with DHCP capability (router, etc.), no setup is
required. The TV automatically sets itself up for Ethernet use. If you do not have
a NAT/PAT router, you may need to establish some settings in conjunction with
your ISP (Internet Service Provider) before you can connect to the Internet.
If an IP address isn’t assigned for you, contact your network administrator for
the necessary information.
A
Reset All
selection is provided for your convenience if you move to another
city and must enter new information, or enter some incorrect information.
Preferences Menu
The
Preferences
menu allows you to change some aspects of your TV to fit your
personal preferences. Features in the

and
Lamp Power.
Use the keyboard or the remote's arrow keys to enter the
host name. This may be the only setup you need to do.

Some Internet Service Providers (phone/cable company)
may require you to provide them with your TV's Ethernet
MAC (Media Access Control) address and assign you with a
device host name to enter below. This is usually NOT
required if connecting to an ISP through an Ethernet
gateway device (e.g. router) supporting NAT/PAT,
sometimes referred to as a DSL/Cable Modem router.
This is your device's MAC address:
00 11 22 33 44 55
If your Ethernet gateway device supports DHCP, the
Domain Name will appear here:
domain.name.here.
If required, enter the device hose name below:
