- - Change the setting of your wireless router (or access point) to 802.11n if possible. For details on how to change the setting, refer to the instruction manual of your wireless router (or access point), or contact the person who set up the network connection (network administrator).
- - If the above does not bring any improvement, try using the USB Wireless LAN Adapter UWA-BR100 and change the setting of your wireless router (or access point) to 5GHz, which may help improve the video streaming quality.
- To set WEP security of the wireless router (or access point), select [Custom] → [Wireless Set-up] → [Scan].
- To set WPS PIN, select [Custom] → [Wireless Set-up] → [WPS (PIN)].
- If you want to connect the TV with your wireless router (or access point) at 5GHz, use the USB Wireless LAN Adapter UWA-BR100. The USB Wireless LAN Adapter may not connect directly to the TV’s USB port, depending on your TV model. In this case, do not forcibly connect the USB Wireless LAN Adapter directly. Be sure to use the extension cable supplied with it. Otherwise, malfunction may result.
- If you connect the TV with your wireless router (or access point) at 5GHz, set [Wi-Fi Direct] to [Off]. Press the HOME button, then select [Settings] → [Network] → [Wi-Fi Direct] → [Off].
