Tips
For smooth video streaming:
-  Change  the setting  of your  wireless router (or  access point)  to 802.11n if possible.  For details on
how to change the setting,  refer to the instruction manual of your  wireless router (or  access point),
or contact  the person who set up the network  connection (network administrator).
-  If the above  does not bring  any improvement, try using the USB Wireless LAN  Adapter  UWA-
BR100 and change the setting  of your  wireless router (or  access point)  to 5GHz, which may help
improve the video streaming quality.
If you want to connect  the TV with your  wireless router (or  access point)  at 5GHz, use the USB
Wireless LAN  Adapter  UWA-BR100. The  USB Wireless LAN  Adapter  may not connect  directly to
the TV’s USB port,  depending on your  TV model.  In this case, do not forcibly connect  the USB
Wireless LAN  Adapter  directly.  Be  sure  to use the extension cable supplied  with it. Otherwise,
malfunction may result.
If you connect  the TV with your  wireless router (or  access point)  at 5GHz, set [Standby  for Wi-Fi
Direct] to [Off]. Press the HOME button, then  select 
 [Settings] →  [Network]  → [Standby  for
Wi-Fi Direct] → [Off].
