Network Connection
You can set up your TV so that it can access through your local area network (LAN) using a wired or wireless connection.
Network Connection - Wireless
You can connect your TV to your LAN through a standard wireless router or modem. To connect wirelessly, you must first
attach a Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter (WIS09ABGN, WIS09ABGN2, WIS1 OABGN - sold separately) to either the USB port
on the back of your TV. See the illustration below.

Samsung's Wireless LAN adapter (Sold separately) supports the IEEE 80211 a, IEEE 80211 b, IEEE 802.11 g, and IEEE
802.11 n wireless communication protocols. For your TV to connect to your network, the wireless router or modem you use
must also support one of these protocols. The fastest of these protocols is IEEE 802.11 n.
Most wireless network systems incorporate a security system that requires devices that access the network through an access
point or wireless router (typically a wireless modem or router) to transmit an encrypted security code called an access key.
For regular connections, your TV is compatible with the following security protocols:
• Authentication Mode: OPEN, SHARED, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK
• Encryption Type: WEP, TKIP, AES
