Network Menu
When you first turned on your HDTV you set up your network connection using the
Setup App
. If you did
not do this or if your setup has changed, you can do this from the Network
menu.
The Ethernet function on your HDTV is used to access the Internet. Your HDTV also has 802.11n
wireless, so you can connect your TV to the Internet through your wireless home network. A wired
connection may deliver a more consistent connection depending on the conditions in your home
environment. When you enter the
Network Menu
you will see your current connection method.
