Wireless Network
Connect the TV to the Internet using a standard router or modem.
Wireless Network Precautions
●
This TV supports the IEEE 802.11a/b/g /n communication protocols. Samsung recommends using
IEEE 802.11n. Otherwise when you play video over a network connection, the video may not play
smoothly.
●
To use a wireless network, the TV must be connected to a wireless router or modem. If the
wireless router supports DHCP, the TV can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the
wireless network.
●
Select a channel that is not currently in use for the wireless router. If the channel set for the
wireless router is currently being used by another device, the result is usually interference and/or
a communications failure.
●
Most wireless networks have an optional security system. To enable a wireless network's security
system, you need to create a security key using characters and numbers. This security key is then
needed to connect to the wireless network.
Network Security Protocols
The TV only supports the following wireless network security protocols and is unable to connect to
non-certified wireless routers:
●
Authentication Modes: WEP, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK
●
Encryption Types: WEP, TKIP, AES
If the wireless router has been set to Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11n mode and the
Encryption Type to WEP or TKIP, Samsung TVs will not support the connection in compliance with the
new Wi-Fi certification specifications.
If the wireless router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), it is possible to connect to the network
using PBC (Push Button Configuration) or a PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS automatically
configures the SSID and WPA key settings.
