connecting the display to the home network, quickly power off and/or disconnect the power cable of the home network router or cable modem, Then power on and/or connect the power cable again.
• Depending on the Internet service provider (ISP), the number of devices that can receive INTERNET service may be
limited by the applicable terms of service. For details, contact your ISP.
• LG is not responsible for any malfunction of the display or Internet connection failures due to communication errors/
malfunctions associated with your Internet connection or other connected equipment.
• LG is not responsible for problems within your INTERNET connection.
• You may experience undesired results if the network connection speed does not meet the requirements of the
content being accessed.
• Some INTERNET connection operations may not be possible due to certain restrictions set by the Internet service
provider (ISP) supplying your Internet connection.
• Any fees charged by an ISP including, without limitation, connection charges are your responsibility.
NOTE
• If you want to access the Internet directly on your display, the INTERNET connection should always be on.

Tips for When Configuring Wireless Network Settings
• The wireless network may be affected by interference from a device that uses 2.4 GHz frequency, such as a wireless
telephone, Bluetooth device or microwave. Interference may also be caused by a device that uses 5 GHz frequency such as Wi-Fi devices.
• The wireless network service may run slowly depending on the surrounding wireless environment.
• Some devices may have a network traffic jam if any local home networks are turned on.
• To connect to a wireless router, a router that supports wireless connection is necessary; the wireless connection
function of the corresponding router must also be activated. Ask the router manufacturer whether the router supports wireless connection.
• To connect to a wireless router, verify the SSID and security settings of the wireless router. Please refer to the user
guide of the corresponding router regarding SSID and security settings of the wireless router.
• The monitor may not work properly if network devices (wire/wireless router or hub, etc.) are incorrectly set up. Be
sure to install the devices correctly by referring to their user guides before configuring the network connection.
• The connection method may vary according to the manufacturer of the wireless router.
