Connecting to the network
To enjoy internet services, you need to connect the TV to a router with a high speed connection to the internet. You can also connect the TV to your Home network server through a router or access point. The TV connection to the router can either be wired or wireless.
NOTE
•If you choose a wired connection to the router, you need an ETHERNET cable (commercially available).
•If you do not have a broadband internet connection, consult the store where you purchased your TV or ask your internet service provider or telephone company.
•An ETHERNET and wireless connection cannot be used at the same time. Use only one of the connection types.
•A stable connection speed is required to play back streaming content, otherwise you may not be able to watch normally.
Wired installation
Use an ETHERNET cable to connect the ETHERNET terminal on the TV to your broadcast router as shown below. This is recommended when enjoying services which require stable connection speeds, such as streaming media.
