Connecting the TV set to your network

To receive media via media servers in your home network or via the
Internet, you have to integrate your TV set in your home network.
You can connect your TV set both with a wired connection (Ethernet,
PowerLine) or via a wireless radio connection (WLAN). The TV set has
an internal WLAN antenna. You can find connection examples for both
cases on page 19.
The TV sets are provided with a standard network configuration ex
works (automatic assignment of the IP address, WLAN deactivated). The
TV set can normally have a wired connection to your home network
without any problems when using these default settings. For a wireless
connection or for integration in special networks, please select the cor-
responding settings in the Media menu (see page 66).
Your Loewe TV set supports the UPnP AV standard for data playback in
the home network. You can find more detailed information on this in
the technical data on page 142 and in the glossary from page 149
onwards.
