network through an access point or AP (typically a
wireless router
or
modem)
to
transmit
an
encrypted
security
code
called
an
access
key.
Your TV is
compatible
with the following security
protocols:
•
Authentication Mode:
OPEN, SHARED, WPAPSK,
WPA2PSK
• Encryption
Type:
WEP,
TKIP,
AES
If
you
select
Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11
n
mode
and the Encryption type
is
set
to
WEP
or
TKIP
on your AP or
wireless router,
Samsung TVs
will
not support a connection
