Network Connection

You can set up your TV so that it can access the Internet through your local area network (LAN) using a wired or wireless

connection.

Network Connection - Wireless

You can connect your TV to your LAN through a standard wireless router or modem. To connect wirelessly, you must ﬁrst

attach a Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter (WIS09ABGN, WIS09ABGN2, WIS10ABGN - sold separately) to either the USB port

on the back of your TV. See the illustration below.

Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter supports the IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g, and IEEE 802.11n wireless

communication protocols. For your TV to connect to your network, the wireless router or modem you use must also support

one of these protocols. The fastest of these protocols is IEEE 802.11n.

Most wireless network systems incorporate a security system that requires devices that access the network through an access

point or wireless router (typically a wireless modem or router) to transmit an encrypted security code called an access key.

For regular connections, your TV is compatible with the following security protocols:

• Authentication Mode: OPEN, SHARED, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK

• Encryption Type: WEP, TKIP, AES

Conﬁguring the Network Connection - Wireless

The instructions below are for networks that use the Dynamic Host Conﬁguration Protocol (DHCP) to conﬁgure network

connections automatically. If your have a Static IP network, see your user’s manual for conﬁguration instructions.

To conﬁgure your network connection for a network that uses DHCP, follow these steps:

1. Connect your TV to your network as shown in the

illustrations above.

2. Turn on your TV, press the MENU button on your remote,

and then select Network → Network Settings.

3. Select Wireless (General), and then press ENTER

twice.

4. The Network function searches for available wireless

network. When done, it displays a list of the available

networks.

5. In the list of networks, press the ▲ or ▼ button to select

a network, then select Next and press ENTER

6. If you have selected an wireless router that has security,

the security key screen appears. Enter the Security

key (Security key or PIN), then select Next, and press

ENTER

✎When you enter the Security key (Security key or PIN), use ▲/▼/◄/► buttons on your remote to select numbers

and characters. You can also use the number keys on the remote to enter numbers directly.
