Most modern TVs are equipped with SMART TV technology. Thanks to her through the TV interface, join the Internet and watch high-quality online movies. And even on this is not the end, because having a camera and a microphone, you can communicate through the Skype application. But that everything happens, it is important to connect the correctly and configure Smart TV.

SMART TV connection

To use all SMART TV features, you need to connect the TV to the Internet. You can carry out 2 ways:

  • connecting a wireless type using Wi-Fi network;
  • connecting a TV and a router using an Internet cable.

It is more correct to determine the connection method even before purchasing the TV. However, it is strongly recommended to purchase devices that interact with the Internet via Wi-Fi. This method of connecting to the network is much faster than the Internet cable, it is much easier to connect the scheme, you can avoid extra spending and laying the cable in the apartment.

In any case, connect Smart TV technology to the Internet is easy:

  1. Cable connection.

This is the easiest way, although not very practical. An Internet cable is taken and directly connected between the TV, the modem and the Ethernet port. Communication will be recognized instantly, after which it is possible to start using all the amenities of the Smart TV system on the TV: watch video, download them, use Skype (with peripheral equipment).

Disadvantages:

  • moving devices is hampered and completely depends on the location of the router and the cable length;
  • the slightest damage to the wire can cause certain instability in the network or completely spoil the Internet connection;
  • over time, the cable shell may crack, exposing the inside of the cable (the likelihood of shock is increased);
  • in some cases, there is no possibility to pave an additional cable (under the plinth or floor), as a result, it will be slightly lying right on the floor.

Benefits:

  • the simplest connection scheme, which can only be invented (any person can cope, even a full-fledged newcomer);
  • there is no need to understand the settings and some further adjust the TV on the reception signal;
  • 99% of all malfunctions are in the cable - after it is replaced by the Internet again appears;
  • The Internet cable is purchased at a low price, and the entire connection procedure lasts no more than 1 minute.

One end of the LAN cable must be connected to the Ethernet connector on the TV with SMART TV technology, and the second end to the external modem of the Internet network. The modem itself is also connected to an Ethernet port in the wall (if this has not been done earlier). Then there will be short recognition by the new connection device, and access to the Internet will appear. This connection ends.

  1. Wireless connection.

To connect SMART TV via Wi-Fi, you must have a built-in Wi-Fi module on TV. It is he will "catch the Internet from the router. If there is no such, you should purchase a special adapter (small device connected to the TV / computer), which will be connected. This adapter is connected to the USB port on the TV.

First you need to make sure that the Wi-Fi router works properly and is entirely connected to the Internet. Next after installing the adapter (not required with the built-in module) in the TV options, select the appropriate section and start the search process of available Wi-Fi connections.

It is important to pay attention to the name of an Internet network available. If it is a neighbor's router, it can be disabled at any time. Therefore, it should be considered responsible for the selection of available networks to have a permanent and guaranteed link with the Internet.

If there is a security code / password, it will need to enter during the connection process. Once the connection between TV and Wi-Fi router will be configured, the user will receive full access to Internet resources and applications.

Also included with the purchased TV there is always a manual manual with comprehensive information about connecting rules, settings and using Smart TV technology.

How to connect Smart TV to the Internet via LAN cable and via Wi-Fi, see next video:

  1. Connecting through a computer.

Use Smart TV technology can be achieved by computer. You can connect TV in 2 ways:

  • through the mentioned Wi-Fi.

However, the connection via HDMI will not be able to provide access to the Internet. Thus, you can only view movies on your computer using a TV as a monitor.

But when connecting to a computer, via the Wi-Fi Internet configuration will be available, as if connecting to a regular router (in fact, this is the same).

After all the procedures performed, it remains only to finally configure Smart TV.

Features LG TV settings

There are different settings in different TVs, so it is important for the complete operation of Smart TV to configure the device for the correct connection to the Internet.

For TV models from the LG manufacturer, it is often necessary to register in the SMART TV system. Without it, install and use the applications (as well as the other TV functionality) it will be impossible.

First you need to go to the main menu of the TV. Then in the upper right corner of the menu will be the button to enter the account. There will be necessary to enter a login and password from it, but since the account does not exist yet, it must be created. To do this, you need the "Create Account / Registration" button.

In the form that opens, you should come up with and enter a password, login, and add an email address:

In any of the cases in the registration process, you will need a smartphone or computer to enter an email and confirm the profile registration process on the network.

Connection features in Sony BRAVIA

Setting up Smart TV technology in Sony BRAVIA TVs is significantly different:

1. First of all on the remote control, click the HOME button:

This will translate the user to the main menu of the TV.

2. Then in the window that opens, select a suitcase icon, after which the Settings menu will appear:

3. In the drop-down list, select the "Network" item:

4. As a result, a few more points will appear, from which you should select "Update Internet Content":

After these actions, the Internet will restart to restart, and the TV will configure the necessary network. This configuration SMART TV is over.

SAMSUNG TV setup

Along with the TV, an instruction manual is supplied in which the connection procedure is thoroughly explained, but not detailed SMART TV settings. Perhaps this is due to the fact that Samsung is fully sure that there will be no problems during the connection:

1. On the remote control, you must go to the Smart Hub menu:

2. To check the SMART TV operation, it is enough to run any of the available applications:

If it starts, the technology is successfully working, and you can start enjoying all the advantages of the service.

What if you failed to connect the Internet?

But what to do when a variety of mistakes occur, it is difficult to say. For each malfunction there are their solutions, so it is impossible to identify actions that will certainly help.

Nevertheless, you can try to correct the error in the most common way. To deepen in the SMART TV settings and change them if you need:

1. The menu item is selected, then "Network" and "Network Settings":

2. There will also be a message that will be offered to automatically try to configure the connection.

It is not necessary to immediately put the cross in this idea, since it is possible that the television fault may be able to solve independently. Therefore, in the window, click on the "Start" to start the automatic setting process.

If the Internet can be configured, a corresponding message will appear. If not, then "pops up" a notification with an error.

3. If it is impossible to establish a connection in this way, you need to go to the "Network Status" menu. It is immediately under the "network settings":

4. In a new window, you need to go to the "IP Setup" item, and then select Automatic Getting IP Address:

5. If it does not help, then all data will have to enter independently:

You can find the IP address, subnet mask, etc. You can contact the Internet provider through a phone call. Also, if there is a computer and using the same Internet, you can log in in the local connection menu and select "Details". In the window that appears, all data on the Internet network will be shown, but for SMART TV will only be interesting formed:

Enter them in the TV menu in the sections of the same name.

After actions, the Internet connection must be established, and you can start using Smart TV on the Samsung TV.

Identical network setup actions can be carried out on any other models, since the difference is only in the location of the menu and the names of the partitions. But do not worry, because they will be intuitive: "Setting the network" and "network installations" is the same thing.

To check Smart TV, you can run any application or somehow otherwise try to take advantage of TV functions that require internet. If it happened, it means everything is in order, and if not, you need to configure. Everything is very simple, the main thing is to understand the essence of the device's work and carefully read the instructions for the user.

In contact with

Wired connection (LAN)

1. Connect the LAN port on the back of the TV with an external modem using a network Ethernet cable.

2. Connect the LAN port on the rear panel of the TV with the IP device of sharing connected to the external modem.

3. Depending on the settings, the TV using a power cable can be connected directly to the power outlet.

If the home network works in a dynamic mode, you need to use any XDSL modem or router. If the connection device supports the DHCP protocol, the values \u200b\u200bof the IP address, gateway, subnet mask and DNS servers will be automatically affixed.

If the network uses a static IP address, it and other connection parameters must be administered manually. In this case, you can also use XDSL modems with DHCP support.

Automatic setting (with the support of DHCP)

2. The network check screen appears - on this network setting is over.

The setting is supported in the network with access speed below 10 Mbps. If you can not find the settings for network connection settings or if you want to manually configure, select Manual;.

Manual setting (when using a static IP address)

  1. Go to network settings; → Cable;
  2. Select the IP Setup item; On the network check screen.
  3. Set the IP mode parameter; manual value;

4. Move with the arrow by the connection parameters (IP address;, Mask subnet;, gateway; and the DNS server;) and enter them manually. 5. After completing the setting, click OK. The network check screen appears - the network setting is over.

Wireless Connection (WiFi)

For wireless connection to the network, you will need a wireless modem or a router, as well as for Samsung LED TVs - SAMSUNG WiFi adapter (WIS09AbGN, WIS09ABGN2, WIS10ABGN) to be connected to a USB connector on the rear panel of the TV. The adapter supports IEEE 802.11a / B / G / N - Samsung communication protocols recommends using the IEEE 802.11n protocol.

In the plasma PDP TVs, the Samsung Wifi adapter is built-in and a separate external USB adapter is not required.

To connect to a wireless network, the TV must be connected to a wireless IP device of sharing (modem or router). If the Wireless IP Acid Access Device supports the DHCP protocol, then you can use the DHCP protocol to connect the TV to a wireless network. Select the free channel for the wireless IP device of sharing. If the selected channel is occupied by another device installed nearby, there may be interference or communication interruptions. The security system other than those listed below will not work on the TV:

  • If the High-Throughput (Greenfield) 802.11n mode is selected in pure and as encryption type, WEP, TKIP or TKIP AES (WPS2MixED) is selected, Samsung TVs will not support the connection in accordance with the new WiFi certificate specifications.
  • If the wireless router supports WPS (WiFi Protected Setup), then you can connect to the network by pressing one button (PBC) or using a PIN -Code. WPS will automatically configure the SSID and WPA key for each mode.

When you connect the SAMSUNG wireless LAN adapter, turn off the TV, connect the adapter, then turn on the TV again. The image may be distorted on some channels if the TV is connected to the SAMSUNG wireless LAN adapter. In such cases, establish a connection using one of the following methods or connect the SAMSUNG wireless LAN adapter using a USB cable in a place where the radio interference is excluded. Method 1: Connection using a rectangular USB adapter.

  1. Connect the rectangular USB adapter to the SAMSUNG wireless LAN adapter.
  2. Connect the other end of the rectangular adapter to the USB port.

Method 2.: Connection through the extension cable.

  1. Connect the extension cable to the USB port.
  2. Connect the extension cable to the SAMSUNG wireless LAN adapter.
  3. Attach the Samsung Wireless LAN adapter to the rear panel of the TV in its upper part with a double-sided adhesive tape. The adapter of the Samsung wireless LAN must be installed on the TV connector to avoid the interference of the adapter and tuner.

Most wireless networks are protected by an additional security system that requires the connected device for providing an encrypted security code, which is called the access code or security key. This is a password phrase, usually the word or sequence of letters and numbers of a certain length that the user must enter when configuring the security of a wireless network.

When this method is selected, the wireless network connection method is selected and the user must enter the password phrase during the configuration procedure. SAMSUNG TV wireless connection is possible in several ways.:


If the wireless router is selected hiding mode (invisible), you must select the Add Network parameter; and enter the appropriate values \u200b\u200bfor network name (SSID) and security key to establish a connection. If the Security popup will appear; specify the security key (protection; or PIN;) and select Next;. When entering the security key, use the arrow buttons on the control panel to select digits or letters.


If the wireless router settings have been changed or a new access point was installed, repeat the above connection procedure using the One Foot Connection function.

  • Plug & Access (Your wifi router must support this feature)
    1. Insert the USB storage device in the SAMSUNG wireless router and check the status of the access point indicator (flashes → enabled).
    2. Remove the USB device and insert the Samsung on the TV.
    3. Wait for the connection to automatically.
    4. The network check screen appears - the network setting is over.

If the wireless router settings have been changed, or a new wireless router has been installed, repeat the connection procedure described above using the Plug & Access function.

Hello, dear friends! Time flies very quickly, and on the shelves of technology stores, the new models of televisions have time to appear. And if you recently purchased LCD TV, then you probably heard that Wi-Fi can be connected to it. And indeed, such an opportunity is. In general, it is worth a confession that my neighbor who actually appeals to me with a request to help connect his TV to the global Internet, as it was completely far from such things asking me to help me.

In general, we can say that the TV has successfully connected with him, though there was one nuance because of which there were some difficulties during connections, but in general the procedure is not so complicated as it seems at first glance. Therefore, in this material, I will tell you in detail how to connect the TV to the Internet via the WiFi router, you will also learn how this process generally passes and what will be needed to connect it. We will also consider the types of Internet connections for modern TVs. It is necessary to know that you mean in advance whether it is possible to connect the TV to the global web or not, for example, when purchasing it.

From the name of today's article it is clear that a router must be installed in your home or apartment. I spoke about the router already in my previous articles, you can take these articles:

or do this post: note))

If this step is not executed, you can try to connect the cable to the TV, but this is already the topic of another article.

Analysis of the Internet connection procedures to the TV via WiFi router, I will show on the example of LG. Be sure that the process passes is identical and on other popular brands - Samsung, Toshiba, Phillips, Sony, etc.

How to connect the TV to the Internet via WiFi Router?

So, all modern TVs can be divided into several categories:

1. Models with built-in Wi-Fi module. This is the best option, as the module is already in the design, that is, you will not need to install additional equipment. On such a TV, the internet connection takes no more than 10 minutes.

2. TV with support for connecting the Wi-Fi adapter. Initially, such TVs cannot be connected to the router, but you can buy a separate adapter to them. After that you can use a wireless connection. It should be borne in mind that various adapters are produced for each model. That is why it is important to carefully examine the instructions. Adapters look like this:

TVs without Wi-Fi, but with a power outlet. In older models there is no support for the external adapter, and there is no built-in module in such TVs. You may find a connector for connecting the cable. Then you can implement the following scheme: Connect the TV with the second router, which works in the client mode. There is an alternative, which implies the connection of the cable to the LAN adapter, which is able to receive the Internet by Wi-F I look through the cable.

I will not tell about the models without LAN connector and Wi-Fi, although there are also such craftsmen who are connected to the Internet to TV with HDMI connector. In this instruction, we will consider the option with a TV where the Wi-Fi module is initially present. Once again I repeat that the material will be useful and those who already have a USB adapter.

Important! If you have not selected a suitable TV for yourself, then when you purchase, specify the SMART TV function in TV. With it to use the Internet will be even more convenient, and the built-in Wi-Fi module is accurately accountable.

What is needed to connect the TV to the Internet?

We can only prepare. The main component is a TV with a built-in Wi-Fi adapter or an external USB receiver. If you have a second option, connect the adapter in advance to the TV. Next you need to check whether the router works. The device model is not important in this case - it should be workers.

If you have no router, you may have a Wi-Fi network without a password. Sometimes it is impossible to connect to them due to the fact that filtering on the MAC address is set. That is why it is recommended that you have your own router and access to its settings. Then, if necessary, you can make changes. Everything is ready, then go to the connection process!

How to connect the TV to the Internet via WiFi Router: Step-by-step instructions!

When we turn on the TV for the first time, he suggested to us to connect to the Internet. Moreover, the system provides a choice - do it through a cable or Wi-Fi. Most likely, you ignored this item when you first start, so I will show how to connect the Internet through the settings. You could also not see this menu, it means that the TV included without you or even in the store.

Run the TV and open the settings - click on the Settings button on the console.

In the menu that opens, you need to find the "Network" tab, then go to the "Network Connection" section. If you have an English-speaking version of the menu, then proceed from the screenshots:

After that, the system will show us a small instruction, I recommend to familiarize yourself with it. After that, click on the "Configure Connection" button.

The TV will automatically launch the search for available networks and give you the result. In my case there are two connections available. If you need to independently enter the data for the connection, select "manual setting". Here you may have a question, and in what cases may be needed such a function? You need to connect using WPS technology, drive a static IP address or connect with hidden SSID.

Using a virtual keyboard, specify the password if it is present. Confirm the entry by the "OK" button. If the password was entered correctly. You will see a message that you have successfully connected to the Internet. We click "Finish" and moving on. Perhaps the system will offer you to enter DNS and IP, I recommend to leave all the indicators on the "automatic" and press "ready." As the reviews of the owners of TVs of other brands show, sometimes the system gives the network card - it makes no sense to describe this process, since it does not affect the operation of the wireless connection.

Excellent, now all functions of Smart TV are available for you. The screenshot below shows the icon responsible for the inclusion of SMART TV. Also at the top of the screen you can find out if your computer is connected to a wireless Internet.

Possible problems when trying to connect the TV to the Internet via WiFi Router

Sometimes when trying to connect to the wireless Internet, errors pop up. They can be corrected as follows:

Disable the TV from the network and connect it again. This is the easiest way, but sometimes it helps to solve complex problems.

Did not work out? Then you should try to reset the SMART HUB settings. We go to this section and go to "Tools". You will find such a button on the control panel. Next, we need to go to "Settings" and click on the "Reset" button. Perhaps the TV will ask you to enter the PIN code "0000". Next you will need to agree with the conditions, after which the reinstallation will begin.

If it does not help, you should try to update all the TV software. You will find this feature in "Support". The system will offer you to update on the network, but in some cases it is impossible to do it, since you cannot connect to the Internet. In this case, you need to download software on the Internet on the computer, and then using a flash drive to turn it onto the TV. Also, I suggest you see the following video:

Well, dear friends, here's actually everything, what I wanted to tell you today in this article. By completing the current article - how to connect the TV to the Internet via a WiFi router, it will be necessary to note that the process goes back pretty quickly and simply. If your house has a TV with another manufacturer, then I think that you are quickly lean using my instruction. Do not forget to write questions in the comments if you encountered any difficulty when configuring wireless Internet connection. We will look together for the possible problems of connecting the TV to the Internet.

Also add that I checked the work of SMART TV on the TP-Link TL-WR841N router. In addition to the TV, another 5 devices were connected to the router. The actual speed was about 2 MB / c. I was enough for this indicator to fully use the SMART TV functions. As an example, I can say that I looked at the HD video format from YouTube, and no brakes at the same time were noticeable.

The process of connecting the TV to the Internet is quite simple. This is facilitated, unilaterally, the manufacturer's efforts are simple settings, a logical menu interface.

It is necessary to immediately mention that you can connect to the Internet exclusively Smart TVs. They have a special platform on a producing chip, as well as their own browser. If we are talking about Android TVs, then this is Google Chrome in mobile and computer versions. In the case of Linux, although this is a rather rare phenomenon - QUPZILLA or DILLO.

The ability to carry out a similar connection of simple plasma TVs through the TV-console, also takes place, but we will talk about this at the end of the article.

What do you need to connect?

In addition to the TV itself, it is worth noting a sharp need to:

  • Internet access point.
  • The IP address provided by the provider while entering the Internet cable to the house / apartment.
  • Instructions for TV.
  • Router.
  • Network Patch Court UTP Cat 5.

The above points are suitable immediately for two existing ways of connecting.

What are the connections available to the user?

To share them accepted on:

  • direct connection;

The essence of direct connection lies in its presence, some cumbersome. The Internet cable is easy enough to plug into the TV network card connector, but it will be necessary to enter copyright data.

  • connecting through a router.

Perform such a connection is much easier. All copyright data is already entered in the router settings. It also recommends most of the manufacturers of televisions.

Connecting the TV to the Internet on the cable, through the router

As already mentioned earlier, just to stick the network cable in the LAN port can be. But if you need to enter a login and password, server data, then in this case, the Internet will not work. TV, although it has a similar network connection system, like a computer, but the difference is quite significant.

If the question of connecting through the cable is fundamental, you should use the following algorithm of actions:

  • purchase and install an existing router;
  • connect the provider cable to the WAN port on the router;
  • to configure it through a computer by visiting his personal account at 192.168.1.1 (0.1.);
  • install the driver from the router on the computer.

Next, using the UTP Cat 5 network patch cord, connect one end to the LAN connector, and the second one of the 5-free outputs on the router. As put, the latter are painted in yellow or orange.

After connecting the double-sided patch of Cord, the load indicator on the network, which corresponds to the selected port on the router.

It is worth noting that the load indicator on the port and the load indicator on the overall WAN port, signal in the same flicker mode.

Only after a full connection, it is necessary to switch to the tuning of the TV itself, and it is performed as follows:

  • Log in to the main menu, through the "MENU" button (the keypad button on the remote control).
  • Selecting the "Network" section.
  • Click on subparagraph "Setup Network".
  • Select the "Connection through Cable" mode.
  • Activation of connection.

Here, in fact, the whole process of configuring the connection of the telek to the Internet through the cable (direct connection). It remains only to wait for the completion of the automatic configuration of the connection and click "OK" at its end.

You can use the exit to the global network!

Internet connection via Wi-Fi

Also running through the router. It will take everything that is mentioned above, with the exception of Pach-Cord, although it includes a standard set of wireless router.

The connection algorithm is exactly the same as mentioned earlier, with the exception of some items:

  • no longer need to connect any cable to the TV;
  • in the settings and selection of the mode, you need to select the wireless network type.

Everything else is similar to the first connection. No need to study tons of information for such an connection. It is much easier and more productive as, in fact, manufacturers approve.

Additional advantage of Wi-Fi connection

This is, of course, a full-fledged wireless network in the house. In addition to the TV, you can connect an unlimited number of devices that "know" login and password to pass authorization.

How to connect the TV to the router on which the password and login of authorization are installed?

Practically in 100% of cases, after setting up the TV system and select the network subtype, a window appears with login and password, and there is no CWERTY-keyboard console.

You should not despair, because at such a case we have a wps. This is a connection confirmation algorithm without entering the mentioned data. Enough, immediately after the appearance of the authorization window, click on the back of the router a small and thin button. This is WPS, which confirms the authorization of the device, for example, in the home network, without a password.

How to connect to the Internet TV without Smart-TV?

In this case, everything is more complicated, not only in terms of implementation, but also financial costs. But it's all quite realizable!

To begin with, it is worth buying a TV prefix that has its own operating system and a functionality for visiting any sites, watching movies online. At the moment, the prefixes are popular for Android. On them and the choice is more, and the price is more acceptable. More expensive, but high-quality solution, - Buy Apple TV.

The same connection process is similar to everyone, namely:

  • Connecting the console to the 220V network.
  • Connection from a TV on a HDMI interface that simultaneously transfers video and sound.
  • Switch to the menu of the connected device by pressing the external source search button.
  • Configure network connection.

The last item is performed similarly to the above, except for the possibility of directly connecting the cable to the console, bypassing the router. Also available on a wireless network.

Outcome

Thus, it is quite obvious that connecting the TV to the Internet is available to anyone who wants. Options for performing the task of several. The choice must be made on the basis of your own preferences and equipment availability.

How to connect smart TV on Samsung TV to the Internet

Samsung Smart TV can connect to the RJ-45 cable network or Wi-Fi.

The network advantage is the lack of excess wires. The disadvantages of the wireless connection include possible breaks and hangs of the film that you are viewed over the network, the reason for this may be not only the low speed of the Internet, and also various interference, such as walls between the TV and the router.

Connecting the TV to the Internet Wi-Fi

Some TVs have a built-in Wi-Fi module, and if there is no, you will have to purchase the SAMSUNG-WIS12AbGNX wireless wireless adapter and connect it to.

Configuring a wireless Internet on a Samsung Smart TV TV implies that you already have a Wi-Fi network with Internet access.

In televisions until 2012, you need to manually specify the connection type: Wired or Wireless (Network Setup - Type of Network: Cable or Wireless).

Before connecting smart TV to the Internet, you need to check and, if necessary, set the automatic receipt of IP and DNS addresses. Go to the menu, select the "Network" tab - "Network Status" - click on the "Configure IP" button.

Then you need to specify the security key from this network, which is installed in the router.

If everything is done correctly, the wireless connection will turn on and the TV will be connected to the Internet.

Connect Samsung Smart TV to the Internet via LAN cable

Connecting Samsung Smart TV to the Internet Via Cable You can not be called very convenient because of the wires. But with them the smaller probability of video brakes due to an unstable signal, both in Wi-Fi wireless network.

For wired TV connection to the Internet, connect it to an Ethernet cable with a router.

It is advisable to connect the TV to the Internet cable via the router, and not directly directly with the provider's cable to the TV. This is due to the fact that Internet providers use different types of connections and not all of them are compatible with our smart TV.

In the TV models until 2012, you need to manually configure the type of connection over the cable: "Network" - "network settings" - "Type of network - cable". In fresh models of TVs after connecting the LAN cable, the desired type of smart TV connection will automatically select.

After a successful connection, click OK. That's all, now access to the Internet is open.

TV is not connected to the Internet

Causes due to which the TV does not connect with the Internet can be different. These include: Incorrect connection and configuration of Smart TV, router settings, provider problems.

Consider the most common solutions to this problem. In most cases, they are enough to successfully connect the TV to the Internet.

  • Another Wi-Fi Network is selected - go to the connection settings and specify the wireless connection you need.
  • Input Wi-Fi password entered - specify the right security key.
  • Check if the DHCP router (dynamic configuration of the network node) is enabled and is displayed in the smart TV settings automatic receipt of IP and DNS. In the TV, open the "Network" menu - "Network Status" - "Configure IP" - IP and DNS to receive automatically.
  • In case of incorrect operation of DHCP, disconnect it in the router. Then go to the Smart TV menu - "Network" - "Set up IP" tab. Instead of "receiving automatically" for IP and DNS, select "Enter manually". Specify the network parameters corresponding to your router, for example:
  • IP address: 192.168.1.2
  • Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
  • Gateway: 192.168.1.1
  • DNS: 192.168.1.1
  • Software crash and error in the Samsung TV - update the firmware.
