Wireless performance may be affected by various factors, including the distance between the TV and your Wi-Fi
router. To improve wireless performance, we recommend placing your Wi-Fi router within 15 feet of your TV.
The use of open or unencrypted Wi-Fi networks is not recommended, as these networks are not secured, and
your data could be at risk.
