Intermittent Wi-Fi
Check the distance between the Modem/Router and the TV. The distance should not exceed 50ft (15.2 m).
Verify that there are no obstacles between your TV and the Modem/Router.
(Appliances, cordless phones, stone walls/fireplaces, etc. decrease Wi-Fi strength.)
Check the cable that connects the Modem to the Router (if you use a separate Modem and Router) to see
if it is in good condition. If it is not, replace the cable.
Connect the TV to your Modem/Router using a CAT 7 cable, and then try to set up a wired network
connection. (MENU >

Check
Network Status

169.x.x.x. If it is, call your ISP to get a valid IP address, and then ask them to check the connection
between your Modem and Router and the connection between the Modem / Router and the Internet.
If you see a valid Mac address, call your ISP and ask them to reset your network circuit to re-register the
Mac addresses of your new Modem/Router and the TV.
