To connect your LCD television to your home network with a wireless connection, you need the following equipment:

In addition to the above equipment, you also need the following information about your wireless network:

  • Network name (SSID)
  • Wireless encryption type (WEP, WPA, etc...)
  • Wireless encryption key

After you have gathered all of the above equipment and information, you can begin connecting your TV to your wireless network by following these steps:

  1. Connect the wireless LinkStick (WIS09ABGN) to the USB port on your TV.
  2.  

  3. Press the MENU button, and then select Setup.
  4. Select Network.
  5. If Network Type is set to Wired, select Network Type, and then select Wireless.
  6. Select Network Setup.
  7. Select Select a network.
  8. Wait a few seconds for the TV to scan for wireless networks in the area. Select the name of your network in the list.
  9. Use the remote control to insert your wireless encryption keys. For numbers, press the number on the remote. For letters, use the arrow keys to highlight a letter, and then press Enter. After you have entered your wireless key, press the D (Blue) button.

    Important: Your wireless encryption key is case sensitive. By default, the letters on the keyboard are uppercase. If you have any lowercase letters in your wireless encryption key, you must press the A (Red) button to switch to lowercase letters, press the A (Red) button again to switch to symbols, and press the A (Red) button again to return to uppercase letters.
  10. Wait several seconds for the TV to connect to your wireless network. If the TV does not connect, you may have to adjust the IP address settings in Network Setup.

  11. Press the RETURN button to return to the Network screen.
  12. Select Network Test. The TV now tests the network to make sure it is connected and working properly.
    • If the connection test fails, check to make sure the correct Network name (SSID) was chosen and the correct wireless encryption key was entered. Next, power off the TV and unplug the modem and router/access point. Wait about 30 seconds, plug the modem and router/access point back in, and then power on the TV. Rerun the Network Test.
