Step 7: Media Play Features

The Media Play feature lets you connect to your PC through your home network and stream PC audio and video files to your HDTV using your remote. To use IPTV or Samsung PC Share Manager, you must connect your TV to your network. You can attach the TV to your network in two ways, by cable, using CAT 5 cable, or wirelessly, using a Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter. Instructions for both connection methods are below.

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 - sold separately) to either the USB 1 or USB 2 (HDD) port on the back of your TV. See the illustration below.

Network Connection - Wired

There are two main ways to connect your TV to your network using cable, depending on your network setup. They are illustrated below:

Configuring the Network Connection - Wired

Most home networks use the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to configure network connections. Home networks that support DHCP automatically provide the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values your TV needs to access the Internet so you don’t have to enter them manually.

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

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 AP (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: yy Authentication Mode: OPEN, SHARED, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK

yy 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.

Some networks are Static IP networks. If your network is a Static IP network, you can not use DHCP to configure the network connection. Instead, you must enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS Server manually. For instructions explaining how to configure a Static IP network, see your user’s manual.

 

If your network uses WEP security encryption, 0~9 and A~F will be

 

available on the Security Key screen. Use the Direction button on your

 

remote to move to the characters and the enter key to select them.
