(If the contract does not allow more than one device per line, only the already-connected PC may be used.)

A wireless network can experience interference from other devices that use the 2.4 GHz frequency (wireless phone, Bluetooth device, or microwave oven). Although interference can also happen when using the 5 GHz frequency, it is less likely to occur.

The wireless environment can make wireless network service run slowly.

Failure to turn off all local home networks may cause excessive traffic on some devices.

The access point device must support wireless connections and wireless connection feature must be enabled on the device to have AP (access point) connection. Contact the service provider for availability of wireless connections on the access point.

Check SSID and security settings of the AP. Refer to the appropriate documentation for SSID and security settings of the AP.

Invalid settings of network devices (wired/wireless line sharer, hub) can cause the TV to operate slowly or not operate properly. Install the devices correctly according to the appropriate manual and network.
