Troubleshooting - Other Problems
Intermittent Wi-Fi
––Check the distance between the Modem/Router and the TV. The distance should not exceed 50ft (15.2 m).
––Verify that there are no obstacles between your TV and the Modem/Router.
(Appliances, cordless phones, stone walls/fireplaces, etc. decrease Wi-Fi strength.)
––Check the cable that connects the Modem to the Router (if you use a separate Modem and Router) to see if it is in good condition. If it is not, replace the cable.
––Connect the TV to your Modem/Router using a CAT 7 cable, and then try to set up a wired network connection. (MENU > NETWORK > NETWORK SETTINGS).
––Check Network Status (MENU > NETWORK > NETWORK STATUS) to see if the IP address is invalid, for example, 169.x.x.x. If it is, call your ISP to get a valid IP address, and then ask them to check the connection between your Modem and Router and the connection between the Modem / Router and the Internet.
––If you see a valid Mac address, call your ISP and ask them to reset your network circuit to re- register the Mac addresses of your new Modem/Router and the TV.
