WiFi integrated
This section is for PFL42x8 TVs only.
You can connect your TV to your home
network wirelessly.
Note:
The wireless network operates in the same
2.4 GHz frequency spectrum as common
household devices, such as Dect phones,
microwave ovens or Bluetooth devices,
which can cause WiFi interference. Move
these devices away from the TV.

To reduce network traffic, switch off
unused network equipment in the
home network.

Reception quality depends on the
location of the wireless router and your
local Internet service provider.

When playing video over your wireless
home network, we recommend that
you use an IEEE 802.11 N router. The
connection speed may differ according
to the operating environment of your
wireless home network.
