7.1.3 Connecting to a Wireless Network
To connect your product to your network wireless, you need a wireless router or modem and a Samsung
Wireless LAN adapter (WIS10ABGN, WIS12ABGNX) , which you connect to your
product back or side
panel USB port. See the illustration below.
Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter is sold separately and is offered by selected retailers, Ecommerce
sites, and Samsungparts.com. Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter supports the IEEE 802.11a/b/g and n
communication protocols. Samsung recommends using IEEE 802.11n. When you play video over a
network connection, the video may not play smoothly.
You must use the “Samsung Wireless LAN adapter” (WIS10ABGN, WIS12ABGNX) to use a
wireless network.
The Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter and the USB extension Cable are sold separately and are
offered by select retailers, Ecommerce sites, and Samsungparts.com.
To use a wireless network, your product must be connected to a wireless IP sharer (either a router
or a modem). If the wireless IP sharer supports DHCP, your product can use a DHCP or static IP
address to connect to the wireless network.
Select a channel for the wireless IP sharer that is not currently being used. If the channel set for the
wireless IP sharer is currently being used by another device nearby, this will result in interference
and communication failure.
Your product supports only the following wireless network security protocols.
Authentication Mode: WEP, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK
Encryption Type: WEP, TKIP, AES.
If you select the Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11n mode and the Encryption type is set to
WEP, TKIP or TKIP AES (WPS2Mixed) on your AP or wireless router, Samsung TVs will not
support a connection in compliance with new Wi-Fi certification specifications.
If your wireless router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can connect to the network via
PBC (Push Button Configuration) or PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS will automatically
configure the SSID and WPA key in either mode.
If your router, modem, or device is not certified, it may not connect to the product via the
“Samsung Wireless LAN adapter”.
Ensure the product is turned on before you connect the “Samsung Wireless LAN adapter”.
Connection Methods: You can set up the wireless network connection in three ways.
Auto Setup (Using the Auto Network Search function)
Manual Setup
WPS (PBC)
The LAN Port on the Wall
Wireless IP sharer
(router having DHCP server)
LAN Cable
