Samsung UN60F8000, UN75F8000XZA manual Wireless Network Precautions, Network Security Protocols

Wireless Network

Connect the TV to the Internet using a standard router or modem.

Wireless Network Precautions

●● This TV supports the IEEE 802.11a/b/g /n communication protocols. Samsung recommends using IEEE 802.11n. Otherwise when you play video over a network connection, the video may not play smoothly.

●● To use a wireless network, the TV must be connected to a wireless router or modem. If the wireless router supports DHCP, the TV can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the wireless network.

●● Select a channel that is not currently in use for the wireless router. If the channel set for the wireless router is currently being used by another device, the result is usually interference and/or a communications failure.

●● Most wireless networks have an optional security system. To enable a wireless network's security system, you need to create a security key using characters and numbers. This security key is then needed to connect to the wireless network.

Network Security Protocols

The TV only supports the following wireless network security protocols and is unable to connect to non-certified wireless routers:

●● Authentication Modes: WEP, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK

●● Encryption Types: WEP, TKIP, AES

If the wireless router has been set to Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11n mode and the Encryption Type to WEP or TKIP, Samsung TVs will not support the connection in compliance with the new Wi-Fi certification specifications.

If the wireless router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), it is possible to connect to the network using PBC (Push Button Configuration) or a PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS automatically configures the SSID and WPA key settings.
