You have the option to connect your TV to a wireless or wired network to access the Internet.
You can attach your TV to your LAN in one of the three following ways:
Option 1.
• 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 5
LAN cable. See Figure 16.
• If your access point (AP) supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), you can connect to the network via Push Button Configuration
(PBC) or PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS will automatically configure the SSID
and WPA key in either mode.
Our built-in wireless LAN adapter supports the IEEE 802.11 ac/b/g/n communication protocols and we recommend that you use
an IEEE 802.11n or IEEE 802.11ac router. When you play a video over an IEEE 802.11 b/g connection, the video may not play
smoothly.
• You must use the Hisense built-in Wireless LAN Adapter to use a wireless network because the set does not support an
external USB network adapter.
• To use a wireless network, your TV must be connected to a wireless IP sharer. If the wireless IP sharer supports Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (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 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 below, it will not work with the TV.
• If Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11N mode is selected and the Encryption type is set to WEP, TKIP or TKIP-AES (WPS2
Mixed) for your Access Point (AP), then the Hisense TV will not support a connection in compliance with these Wi-Fi certification
specifications.
