Making Connections
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.
·
We recommend 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.
If a USB 1.1 or USB2.0 device requires more than 500mA or 5V, the USB device
may not be supported. Exceeding the max supported current may result in damage
or data loss.
If you want to store the video streaming of a DTV program, the transfer rate of the
USB storage device must not be less than 5MB/s.
Wireless setup
Connect your TV to your network wirelessly, you need a wireless router or modem.
See the illustration below.

The TV’s built-in Wireless LAN Adapter supports the IEEE 802.11 b/g/n
communication protocols.
