ADVANCE: Watching A/V via Home-Wired LAN

You can enjoy TV and video with the LocationFreeTV “Home mode” via a wired LAN, as well as via a wireless connection. To use the wired LAN, you need to connect the monitor to the Ethernet port on a wall or on a router with a LAN cable (not supplied).

The wired LAN connection is useful when video stops frequently due to a poor wireless

connection and appears at the top of the screen.
