2. Then take USB memory out and insert your USB memory into Samsung TV.
3. Wait until the connection is automatically established.
4. If Plug & Access does not connect your TV to your AP, a pop-up window appears on the screen notifying you of the failure. If you want to try using Plug & Access again, reset the AP, disconnect the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter and then try again from Step 1 .  You can also choose one of the other connection setup methods.
5. The network test screen appears, and network setting is done.
6. Place the AP in a desired location.
7. If the AP settings change or you install a new AP, you must perform the Plug & Access procedure again, beginning from Step 1.

How to set up the network

Click the [Menu] button and open [Set-up] to select [Network]. Configure wired or wireless network settings.

How to check the network status

Select [Menu] ’ [Set up] ’ [Network] and run [Network Test] to see test results and check the network status.

In a network test over a wired connection, the second items which include the IP address, subnet, gateway and DNS server fail.

* If the IP address, subnet mask and gateway address were typed in manually, check that valid values were entered.  (For example, 0.0.0.0 is not valid for an IP address, subnet mask or gateway address.)
* If the IP address the user entered in is invalid, change it to a valid IP address.

In a network test over a wired connection, the third item, gateway ping fails.

* Check that the network cable is connected to the TV correctly.
* If the TV is connected correctly, check whether the IP address is automatic or manual.
* If the IP is automatic and connected to a sharing device, check the settings of the sharing device (AP) that is using a cable connection, or consult the corresponding Internet service provider.
* If the IP is manual, check if the IP address is entered correctly.  (Here, the user should confirm if the manual IP address entered in is valid.)

Cannot connect to a wireless network.

* If an encryption key must be entered in to connect to a sharing device, check that the correct password set for the sharing device is entered.
* Search surrounding sharing devices to see if there is a sharing device with the same SSID by selecting [Wireless Network Setup] and [Select Network].  If there is a sharing device with the same SSID, try to connect to this device.
* If the IP address is set to automatic and you cannot connect to the sharing device using option 1 or 2, check the settings of the sharing device to see if the DHCP server function on the sharing device is enabled. If disabled, activate the function. (For details on how to set up the sharing device, see the manual for the corresponding sharing device.)

What is 3D Display?
A system that display 3D images artificially.
How?  By using binocular time delay.

1 Left eye recognizes left image, right eye recognizes right image.
2 Human eyes be far away each other 65 mm horizontally.  So each eye feels a little bit of time delay of left and right information.  Human brain merges those images and can feel three-dimensional.

Cannot connect to a wireless network (2) or AP

* There could be several causes of the connection failure. Check the AP settings to see if the following condition is found.
* The Pure high-Throughput 802.11n mode (or Greenfield 802.11n mode) is selected and the Encryption type is set to WEP, TKIP or TKIP-AES. • Under the conditions stated above, Samsung TVs will not support a connection in compliance with new Wi-Fi certification specifications. This is intended to maximize the performance of the AP, TV and TV network.  To connect to the AP, set the Encryption type to AES. If Pure High-Throughput 802.11n mode (or Greenfield 802.11n mode) is selected and the Encryption type is set to AES, your Samsung TV will connect to the AP providing you with optimum
performance.

Although the TV is placed close to the AP and the dongle is inserted into the TV, the sharing device cannot be connected to using auto-configuration.

Select [Menu] > [Setup] > [Network] and check if SWL is Off.
If the AP is turned off, the TV will try to re-establish a connection for 2 minutes.

In order to use the Samsung Auto Configuration function, I did as the user manual instructed. I get a message that connecting to an external network has failed

The Samsung Auto Configuration feature is designed to establish an auto connection between the TV and the gateway of the AP. It performs a connection test if the AP is connected to an external network.
If the AP is not connected to an external network, a message that establishing a connection to an external network has failed is displayed. In this case, connect the AP to an external network. After a connection to the external network is established through a network test, you can use the network without any problem. Check if the AP is connected to an external network.  If you perform a test when a connection to an external network is established through a LAN cable, you will obtain successful test results.

When SWL is On,  cannot connect to the 5GHz Wi-Fi mobile device

SWL is connected to a Wi-Fi mobile device which uses 2.4GHz bandwidth and supports PBC (Push Button Configuration) mode.  A mobile device which uses 5GHz or 2.4GHz bandwidth but does not support PBC cannot be connected to the TV.
* WPS: WPS is the acronym for Wi-Fi Protected Setup, and includes two types: PBC (Push Button Configuration) type which performs cross certification with the press of a button and PIN type which performs cross certification when a PIN (Personal Identification Number) code is entered.

Although the TV is placed close to the AP and the dongle is inserted into the TV, the sharing device cannot be connected to using auto-configuration and a message that it is connecting is displayed only.

* If Samsung Wireless Link is On, a 5G-bandwidth wireless sharing device may not be found in a search (restriction).
* If Samsung Wireless Link is Off or the product does not have the Samsung Wireless Link function, please retry searching to fid the sharing device. (May not be found in a search depending on the settings of the wireless connection.)

In a network test over a wireless connection, the second items which include the IP address, subnet, gateway and DNS server fail

* If the IP address the user entered in is invalid, change it to a valid IP address.

In a network test over a wireless connection, the third item, gateway ping fails.

1. If the IP address is automatic and connected to a sharing device, check the settings of the sharing device (AP) that is using a cable connection, or consult the corresponding Internet service provider.
2. If the IP address is manual, check that the IP address is entered in correctly. (Here, the user should confirm if the manual IP entered in is valid.)
