Checking wired network settings

1In the Settings menu, press the down arrow button to select Current Settings, and then press OK.

2Review the current settings that appear.

a If you see Network Mode: wired network, then the network uses DHCP (that is, the IP address is automatically assigned). Continue with “Installing Windows Media Connect” on page 28.

b If you see Network Mode: wired network (disconnected), but your network uses DHCP (that is, the IP address is automatically assigned), consider the following:

Check that the TV Ethernet cable is properly connected to the router.

Check that the network equipment, including the router, is turned on and operating.

If you reconnect the Ethernet cable or turn on equipment, press OK and repeat step 2.

cIf your router does not use DHCP, then assign a static IP address manually. Continue with “Assigning a manual IP address” on page 27.
