Connecting the monitor

After finishing the wired LAN setup, connect the monitor to the Ethernet port on a wall or on a router with a LAN cable (not supplied).

zTip

You should use a straight-wired LAN cable to connect the monitor. Most computers connect with the same type of cable.

Note

Depending on the performance of your router or hub, when enjoying TV or video via wired LAN, the monitor may not be able to communicate correctly and other devices connected to the Internet may be adversely affected. When connecting by wired LAN, be sure to use a 10/100Base-T router or hub.

To use the monitor outside the home-wired LAN, see “Wireless Connection at Home” (1 page 47) and “Wired LAN Connection at Home”
