By connecting your TV to a broadband system, you can access the Internet from the TV.
You can enjoy a variety of streaming content and Internet applications.
(See pages 9-12 to 9-14.)
NOTE
You may not be able to view 3D images when accessing the Internet. (For the UQ17U, TQ15U,
SQ17U, SQ15U and LE657U models)
Connecting to the Internet
To connect your TV to the Internet, you must have a broadband Internet connection.
If you do not have a broadband Internet connection, consult the store where you purchased your
TV or ask your Internet service provider or telephone company.
When an Internet connection is made, an Ethernet and wireless connection cannot be used at
the same time. Use only one of the connection types.
Using an ETHERNET cable
Use an ETHERNET cable (commercially available) to connect the ETHERNET terminal on the TV
to your broadband router (commercially available).
Using the wireless LAN
This TV is equipped with a wireless LAN function.
For a wireless LAN connection, you must use "Wireless Setup" to connect the access point and
TV.
NOTE
This TV has a built-in wireless LAN function. Using a separate wireless USB LAN adapter may
result in radio communications that do not comply with regulations on radio communications.
Therefore, do not use a separate wireless LAN adapter.
A wireless LAN connection and performance cannot be guaranteed for all residential
environments. In the following cases, the wireless LAN signal may be poor or drop, or the
connection speed may become slower.
- When used in buildings made with concrete, reinforced steel, or metal
- When placed near objects that obstruct the signal
- When used with other wireless devices that emit the same frequency
- When used in the vicinity of microwave ovens and other devices that emit a magnetic field,
electrostatic charge, or electromagnetic interference
When there is significant interference in the 2.4-GHz frequency (such as from other wireless
LAN devices, Bluetooth® devices, 2.4-GHz cordless telephones, and microwave ovens), it is
recommended that you use a wireless LAN router/access point that supports IEEE802.11a/n (5
GHz) and set the access point to transmit at 5 GHz. For setup details, see the operation
manual of your access point.
