● If your network requires a Dynamic IP address, you should use an ADSL modem or router that supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).

Modems and routers that support DHCP automatically provide the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values your TV needs to access the Internet so you do not have to enter them manually. Most home networks use a Dynamic IP address. Some networks require a Static IP address. If your network requires a Static IP address, you must enter the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values manually on your TV’s Cable Setup Screen when you set up the network connection. To get the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

If you have a Windows computer, you can also get these values through your computer.

N You can use ADSL modems that support DHCP if your network requires a Static IP address. ADSL modems that support DHCP also let you use

Static IP addresses.

N It is not supported when the network speed is below or equal to 10Mbps.

● To use a wireless network, your TV must be connected to a wireless IP sharer (either a router or a modem). If the wireless IP sharer supports

DHCP, your TV can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the wireless network.

● 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.

● If you apply a security system other than the systems listed below, it will not work with the TV.

English

● If HIGH PURE THROUGHPUT (Greenfield) 802.11n mode is selected and the Encryption type is set to WEP or TKIP for your wireless router,

Samsung TVs will not support a connection in compliance with new Wi-Fi certification specifications.

● If your wireless router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can connect to the network via PBC (Push Button Configuration) or PIN

(Personal Identification Number). WPS will automatically configure the

SSID and WPA key in either mode.

English

● If your router, modem, or device is not certified, it may not connect to the

TV via the “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter”.

● Ensure the TV is turned off before you connect the Samsung Wireless

LAN Adapter.

● Connection Methods: You can setup the wireless network connection like below.

If Your TV Fails to Connect to the Internet

Your TV may not be able to connect to the Internet because your ISP has permanently registered the MAC address (a unique identifying number) of your PC or modem, which it then authenticates each time you connect to the Internet as a way of preventing unauthorized access. As your TV has a different MAC address, your ISP can not authenticate its MAC address, and your TV can not connect.

To resolve this problem, ask your ISP about the procedures required to connect devices other than a PC (such as your TV) to the Internet.

If your Internet service provider requires an ID or password to connect to the Internet, your TV may not be able to connect to the Internet. If this is the case, you must enter your

ID or password when connecting to the Internet.

The internet connection may fail because of a firewall problem. If this is the case, contact your Internet service provider.

If you cannot connect to the Internet even after you have followed the procedures of your

Internet service provider, please contact Samsung Electronics.

Issues

Plasma TV is making humming noise. for PDP TV

Image Retention (Burn

In) Issue. for PDP TV

Solutions and Explanations

● Plasma TVs typically make a soft humming sound. This is normal. It’s caused by the electrical charges that are used to create the images on the screen.

● If the humming sound is loud, you may have set the brightness on the

TV too high. Try setting the brightness lower.

● You can also have loud humming if the back of your Plasma TV is too close to a wall or other hard surface. Also try rerouting your connection cables.

● Improper installation of wall mount can create excessive noise.

● To minimize the possibility of screen burn, this unit is equipped with

Pixel Shift screen burn reduction technology. Pixel Shift lets you set the picture so it moves slightly up and down (Vertical Line) and side to side

(Horizontal Dot). The regular, slight movement of the picture reduces screen burn in.
