Network Setting Warnings
Use standard LAN cable (connect to Cat7 or higher with an RJ45 connector, 10 Base-T, or 100 Base TX LAN port).
Resetting the router may cause network connection problems.
In this case, the router will operate normally if you turn it off and disconnect the TV, and then reconnect and turn it on.
The manufacturer is not responsible for network connectivity or operation failure due to problems such as equipment failure or disconnected lines.
The network connection may not work properly because of network settings or the Internet service provider.
DSL service must use a DSL modem and cable service must use a cable modem. Since only a limited number of network connections may be available, TV network settings may not be used depending on the contract with Internet service provider. (If the contract does not allow more than one device per line, only the already-connected PC may be used.)
A wireless network can experience interference from other devices that use the 2.4 GHz frequency (wireless phone, Bluetooth device, or microwave oven). Although interference can also happen when using the 5 GHz frequency, it is less likely to occur.
The wireless environment can make wireless network service run slowly.
Using several wireless devices at the same time can slow your network.
The access point device must support wireless connections and wireless connection feature must be enabled on the device to have AP (access point) connection. Contact the service provider for availability of wireless connections on the access point.
Check SSID and security settings of the AP. Refer to the appropriate documentation for SSID and security settings of the AP.
If the network is changed by moving the TV or changing the router, you must set up the wireless network again.
Existing wireless network connections will not be saved.
Invalid settings of network devices (wired/wireless line sharer, hub) can cause the TV to operate slowly or not operate properly. Install the devices correctly according to the appropriate manual and network.
The connection method may differ depending on the AP manufacturer.
