To change the band setting (for experts)
When your TV is not connected to any routers by wireless, you can select the wireless band for
the Wi-Fi Direct function. When the standby screen for the Wi-Fi Direct setting is displayed, press
the OPTIONS button, then select [Band Setting].
[Auto]: Normally use this option. It automatically selects an appropriate band for the Wi-Fi Direct
function.
[Auto (2.4GHz Band)]: Use this option when connecting with devices that support 2.4GHz only.
This option may support more devices than other options.
[Auto (5GHz Band)]: Use this option when connecting with devices that support 5GHz. This option
may improve video streaming quality.
Note that when you select this option, the TV cannot connect with devices that support 2.4GHz
only.
[Select a Channel]: Use this option to select a specific wireless channel.
Tips
For information about the supported wireless band of your device, refer to the instruction manual of
your device.
The 5GHz band may not be supported depending on your region/country. If the 5GHz band is not
supported, you can only use [Auto] and [Select a Channel].
Notes
If the TV is connected with a wireless router (or access point) at 5GHz:
- The 5GHz connection will be disconnected when [Wi-Fi Direct] is set to [On]. While the connection is
disconnected, communication via the Internet (such as an incoming call) is stopped.
- The connection will be resumed when [Wi-Fi Direct] is set to [Off].
The 5GHz band may not be supported depending on your region/country. If the 5GHz band is not
supported, the TV can only connect to a wireless router (access point) using the 2.4GHz band.
