broadcasted or where you are able to access to a compatible DVB-C (MPEG2 and MPEG4 AAC) cable-TV service. Please check with your local dealer the possibility to receive DVB-T or DVB-C signal.
2. DVB-T is the DVB European consortium standard for the broadcast transmission of digital terrestrial television and DVB-C is that for the broadcast
transmission of digital TV over cable. However, some differentiated features like EPG (Electric Programme Guide), VOD (Video On Demand) and so on, are not included in this specification. So, they cannot be workable at this moment.
3. Although this TV set meets the latest DVB-T and DVB-C standards, as of [August, 2008], the compatibility with future DVB-T digital terrestrial and
DVB-C digital cable broadcasts cannot be guaranteed.
4. Depending on the countries/areas where this TV set is used some cable-TV providers may charge an additional fee for such a service and you may
be required to agree to terms and conditions of their business.
5. Some Digital TV functions might be unavailable in some countries or regions and DVB-C might not work correctly with some cable service providers.
6. For more information, please contact your local Samsung customer care centre.

the local SAMSUNG Authorized Dealer, or the Samsung Call Centre whether it can be improved by reconfiguring TV setting or not.

Network Connection
You can set up your TV so that it can access the Internet through your local area network (LAN) using a wired or wireless connection.
Connecting to a Wired Network ¦
You can attach your TV to your LAN using cable in three ways:
You can attach your TV to your LAN by connecting the LAN port on the back of your TV to an external modem using a Cat
y
5 cable. See the diagram below.
The Modem Port on the Wall External Modem
You can attach your TV to your LAN by connecting the LAN port on the back of your TV to a IP Sharer which is connected y to an external modem. Use Cat 5 cable for the connection. See the diagram below.
The Modem Port on the Wall External Modem
(ADSL / VDSL / Cable TV)
Depending on how your network is configured, you may be able to attach your TV to your LAN by connecting the LAN y port on the back of your TV directly to a network wall outlet using a Cat 5 cable. See the diagram below. Note that the wall outlet is attached to a modem or router elsewhere in your house.

If you have a Dynamic Network, you should use an ADSL modem or router that supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Modems and routers 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. Most home networks are Dynamic Networks. Some networks require a Static IP address. If your network requires a Static IP address, you must enter the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values manually on your TV’s Cable Setup Screen when you set up the network connection. To get the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP). If you have a Windows computer, you can also get these values through your computer.
You can use ADSL modems that support DHCP if your network requires a Static IP address. ADSL modems that
support DHCP also let you use Static IP addresses.

Connecting Wireless Network ¦
To connect your TV to your network wireless, you need a wireless router or modem and a Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter (WIS09ABGN), which you connect to your TV’s back or side panel USB jack. See the illustration below.
To use the SWL(Samsung Wireless Link) function, connect to the
USB 1 (HDD) port.

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 video over a IEEE 802.11B/G connection, the video may not play smoothly.
NOTE
You must use the “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter” (WIS09ABGN) to use a wireless network.
x
Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter is sold separately. The WIS09ABGN Wireless LAN adapter is offered by select
x
retailers, Ecommerce sites and Samsungparts.com. To use a wireless network, your TV must be connected to a wireless IP sharer. If the wireless IP sharer supports
x
DHCP, your TV 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
x
is currently being used by another device nearby, this will result in interference and communication failure. If you apply a security system other than the systems listed blow, it will not work with the TV.
x
If Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11n mode is selected and the Encryption type is set to WEP, TKIP or
x
TKIPAES (WPS2Mixed) for your AP, Samsung TVs will not support a connection in compliance with new Wi-Fi certification specifications.
If your AP 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.
Keep the Samsung Wireless LAN Adaptor at a distance from the TV. If you watch the TV with the adaptor connected

If Your TV Fails to Connect to the Internet
Your TV may not be able to connect to the Internet because your ISP has permanently registered the MAC address (a unique identifying number) of your PC or modem, which it then authenticates each time you connect to the Internet as a way of preventing unauthorized access. As your TV has a different MAC address, your ISP can not authenticate its MAC address, and your TV can not connect.
To resolve this problem, ask your ISP about the procedures required to connect devices other than a PC (such as your TV) to the Internet.
If your Internet service provider requires an ID or password to connect to the Internet, your TV may not be able to connect to the Internet. If this is the case, you must enter your ID or password when connecting to the Internet.
The internet connection may fail because of a firewall problem. If this is the case, contact your Internet service
provider. If you cannot connect to the Internet even after you have
followed the procedures of your Internet service provider, please contact Samsung Electronics at 1-800-SAMSUNG.
