Precautions for wireless Internet
●
This TV supports the IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac communication protocols. Samsung recommends
using IEEE 802.11n. Video files stored on a device connected to the TV via Home Network may
not play back smoothly.
●
To use wireless Internet, 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 password using characters and numbers. This password is then
needed to connect to a security-enabled AP.
Wireless security protocols
●
The TV only supports the following wireless network security protocols.
–
Authentication Modes: WEP, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK
–
Encryption Types: WEP, TKIP, AES
●
In compliance with the newest Wi-Fi certification specifications, Samsung TVs do not support
WEP or TKIP security encryption in networks running in the 802.11n mode.
●
If the wireless router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can connect the TV to your
network using PBC (Push Button Configuration) or a PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS
automatically configures the SSID and WPA key settings.
●
The TV cannot connect to non-certified wireless routers.
