NOTES
You must use the built-in Wireless LAN Adapter to use a wireless network because
the set doesn’t support external USB network adapters.
If the wireless router supports DHCP, your TV can connect more easily to the wireless
network.
If you apply a security system other than the systems listed below, it will not work with
the TV.
Security system: WPA, WEP, WPA2.
In order to guarantee smooth network, the distance between router and TV should be
less than 10 metres.
Wireless setup
To connect your TV to your network wirelessly, you need a wireless router or
modem. See the illustration below.
·
The built-in Wireless LAN Adapter supports the IEEE 802.11b/g/n
communication protocols. It is recommended to use IEEE 802.11n router. Low
transfer rates for b/g may have the influence on the quality of streamed videos
and other media.
LAN (
Wired setup
)
Connect your TV to your network by connecting the LAN port on the back of your
TV to an external modem or router using a LAN (Ethernet/Cat 5) cable. See the
illustration below.
·
It is recommended to use a modem or router that supports Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Modems and routers that support DHCP
automatically provide the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS, so you
don’t have to enter them manually. Most home networks already have DHCP.
