Samsung recommends using IEEE 802.11n. When you play video over a network
connection, the video may not play smoothly.
• 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.
• Your product supports only the following wireless network security protocols.
If you select the Pure High-throughput (Greeneld) 802.11n mode and the
Encryption type is set to WEP, TKIP or TKIP AES (WPS2Mixed) on your AP or wireless
router, Samsung products will not support a connection in compliance with new Wi-
Fi certication specications.
• If your wireless router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can connect to
the network via PBC (Push Button Conguration) or PIN (Personal Identication
Number). WPS will automatically congure the SSID and WPA key in either mode.
• Connection Methods: You can setup the wireless network connection in three ways.
Auto Setup (Using the Auto Network Search function), Manual Setup, WPS(PBC)
Automatic Network Setup (Wireless)
Most wireless networks have an optional security system that requires devices
that access the network to transmit an encrypted security code called an Access or
Security Key. The Security Key is based on a Pass Phrase, typically a word or a series
of letters and numbers of a specied length you were asked to enter when you set up
security for your wireless network. If you use this method of setting up the network
connection, and have a Security Key for your wireless network, you will have to enter
the Pass Phrase during the the automatic or manual setup process.
