CONNECTING YOUR TV
English
Connecting a home network
The LAN port allows your Toshiba TV to connect to
your home network. You can use this revolutionary
home entertainment networking system to access
photo, video and audio files that are stored on a
DLNA CERTIFIED™ server and play/display them on
your TV.
NOTE:
• The TV’s home network connection allows access to file
sharing only. You will NOT be able to use the TV to access
the Internet.
• If you connect to a shared-network outside your home,
please use the router, and use DLNA in a private network
environment.
• If you use a Hub or switch to connect the TV to your home
network, you may not be able to use the automatic setup
and have to manually set up the network address. See
page 36.
• If you use a router with built-in DHCP functionality, use the
automatic setup. Manual setup may not work.
• If you connect the TV and PC directly, use a crossover LAN
cable.
[1] Coaxial or telephone cable (depending on your modem type)
[2] Standard LAN cable
[3] Do NOT connect a phone jack directly to the TV's LAN port.
Please refer to "Wireless Setup" section on page 33.
If you use the Gooseneck cable to connect the WLAN adaptor;
The transmission speed over the wireless LAN and the distance over which
wireless LAN can reach may vary depending on surrounding
electromagnetic environment, obstacles, access point design and
configuration, and client design and software/hardware configurations.
The actual transmission speed will be lower than the theoretical maximum
speed.
