You must use the “Samsung Wireless LAN adapter” (WIS10ABGN, WIS12ABGNX) to use a wireless network.

The Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter and the USB extension Cable are sold separately and are offered by select retailers, Ecommerce sites, and Samsungparts.com.

To use a wireless network, your product must be connected to a wireless IP sharer (either a router or a modem). If the wireless IP sharer supports DHCP, your product can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the wireless network.

Select a channel for the wireless IP sharer that is not currently being used. If the channel set for the wireless IP sharer is currently being used by another device nearby, this will result in interference and communication failure.

Your product supports only the following wireless network security protocols.

Authentication Mode: WEP, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK

Encryption Type: WEP, TKIP, AES.





If you select the Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11n mode and the Encryption type is set to WEP, TKIP or TKIP AES (WPS2Mixed) on your AP or wireless router, Samsung TVs will not support a connection in compliance with new Wi-Fi certification specifications.

If your wireless router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can connect to the network via PBC (Push Button Configuration) or PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS will automatically configure the SSID and WPA key in either mode.

If your router, modem, or device is not certified, it may not connect to the product via the “Samsung Wireless LAN adapter”.

Ensure the product is turned on before you connect the “Samsung Wireless LAN adapter”.
