Step 6: The Internet@TV and Media Play Features

Your TV’s Internet@TV feature (IPTV) lets you connect to an ever-expanding portal of your favorite on-line digital content. Customizable widgets give you access to Blockbuster, Facebook, YouTube, Flickr, Netﬂix* and more - all on your HDTV. The Media Play feature lets you connect to your PC through your home network and stream PC audio and video ﬁles to your HDTV using your remote. To use IPTV or Samsung PC Share Manager, you must connect your TV to your network. You can attach the TV to your network in two ways, by cable, using CAT 5 cable, or wirelessly, using a Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter. Instructions for both connection methods are below.

Network Connection - Wired

There are two main ways to connect your TV to your network using cable, depending on your network setup. They are illustrated below:

The Modem Port on the Wall

Modem Cable (Not Supplied) LAN Cable (Not Supplied)

The LAN Port on the Wall

External Modem

(ADSL / VDSL / Cable TV)

LAN Cable (Not Supplied)

Conﬁguring the Network Connection - Wired

Most home networks use the Dynamic Host Conﬁguration Protocol (DHCP) to conﬁgure network connections. Home networks that support DHCP automatically provide the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values your TV needs to access the Internet so you don’t have to enter them manually.

To conﬁgure your network connection for a network that uses DHCP, follow these steps:

1. Connect your TV to your network as shown in one of the illustrations above.

2. Turn on your TV, press the MENU button on your remote, and then select Setup → Network.

3. Set the Network Type to Wired if it is not already set to Wired.

4. Select Network Setup. The Network Setup screen appears.

5. On the Network Setup menu, set Internet Protocol Setup and DNS to Auto. Auto acquires and

enters the necessary internet values automatically.

6. Select Network Test to check Internet connectivity.

✎

Some networks are Static IP

networks. If your network is a Static IP network, you can not use DHCP to configure the network connection. Instead, you must enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS Server manually. For instructions explaining how to configure a Static IP network, see your user’s manual.

Starting Internet@TV

To view the On Screen Menus, follow these steps:

1. Turn on your TV, press the MENU button on your remote, then select

Application → Content View.

2. Press the ◄ or ► button to select Internet@ TV, then press the

ENTER

button. The

USER TERMS and PRIVACY POLICY windows appears, then select Yes.

3. Follow the directions on your screen to set up Internet@TV. For detailed instructions, see your Owner’s Manual.

✎

For best Internet@TV results, your broadband company should provide sustained download speeds of 3.5 mb/sec or more.

Network Connection - Wireless

You can connect your TV to your LAN through a standard wireless router or modem. To connect wirelessly, you must ﬁrst attach a “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter” (WIS09ABGN, WIS09ABGN2, WIS10ABGN - sold separately) to either the

USB 1 (HDD) or USB 2 port on the back of your TV. See the illustration below.

Samsung Wireless LAN

Adapter

Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter is sold separately and is offered by select 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 the video over a IEEE

802.11B/G connection, the video may not play smoothly. Most wireless network systems incorporate a security system that requires devices

that access the network through an access point or AP (typically a wireless IP Sharer) to transmit an encrypted security code called an access key.

If Pure High-throughput (Greenﬁeld) 802.11n mode is selected and the Encryption type is set to WEP, TKIP or TKIPAES (WPS2Mixed) for your AP, Samsung TVs will not support a connection in compliance with new Wi-Fi certiﬁcation speciﬁcations.

Conﬁguring the Network Connection - Wireless

The instructions below are for networks that use the Dynamic Host Conﬁguration Protocol (DHCP) to conﬁgure network connections automatically. If your have a Static IP network, see your user’s manual for conﬁguration instructions.

To conﬁgure your network connection for a network that uses DHCP, follow these steps:

1. Connect your TV to your network as shown in the illustrations above.

2. Turn on your TV, press the MENU button on your remote, and the select Setup → Network.

3. Set the Network Type to Wireless if it is not already set to Wireless.

4. Select Network Setup. The Network Setup screen appears.

5. On the Network Setup menu,

select an AP (Access Point) or ad hoc network. If you have selected a network with a security key, the

Security Key screen appears.

6. Enter the security key using the

numbers on the remote, and then press the Blue button on your remote.
