»Netmask«, »Gateway« and »DNS«) are obtained from
modem automatically.
B Manual connection,
all data regarding connection settings (»IP Address«,
»Netmask«, »Gateway« and »DNS«) must be configured

Most of the home networks are Dynamic. If you have a
dynamic network, you must use a DSL modem that supports
DHCP. Modems and IP sharers that support DHCP obtain the
»IP Address«, »Netmask«, »Gateway« and »DNS« values
required for internet access automatically, and thus you are
not required to enter those values manually.

Wireless network

Wireless network connection
There are different ways of making the wireless network
settings. »Wireless« and »Wireless WPS« (WiFi Protected
Setup).
1 Internet TV includes a built-in Wireless WiFi Adapter to
connect it to wireless network.
Notes:
Wireless LAN adapter supports IEEE 802.11B/G and
7
N communication protocols. We recommend you to use
IEEE 802.11N protocol to obtain the best performance in
wireless HD video playback.
If you use a modem that supports IEEE 802.11B/G, video
7
playback performance may be poor when compared
to a modem that supports IEEE 802.11N since the data
transfer rate of IEEE 802.11B/G protocol is lower.
Please note that video playback performance in a DLNA
7
application on a wireless local network and in a Smart
Inter@active TV 3.0 application on a network with internet
connection depends on the number of users on the
network as it is the case in every wireless network.
It is recommended to switch off the equipment that are
7
not in use in home network in order to avoid unnecessary
network traffic.
Placing the modem or wireless network sharer on an
7
elevated location will increase the wireless connection
reception strength.
Wireless connection reception strength may vary
7
depending on the type of the modem and the distance
between the modem and Internet TV.
Wireless network settings
