The transmission may also be cut off or may get disconnected depending on the radio wave conditions, DECT phones or any other WLAN 11b appliances. The standard values of the transmission speed are the theoretical maximum values for the wireless standards. They are not the actual speeds of data transmission.

The location where the transmission is most effective differs depending on the usage environment.

The Wireless feature of the TV supports 802.11 a,b,g & n type modems. It is highly recommended that you should use the IEEE 802.11n communication protocol in order to avoid any possible problems while watching videos.

Keep at least three meters distance from microwave ovens, mobile telephones, bluetooth devices or any other WLAN compatible devices. Try changing the active channel on the WLAN router.


What should I do if Internet Connection is Not Available / Audio Video Sharing Not Working?

If the MAC address (a unique identifier number) of your PC or modem has been permanently registered, it is possible that your TV might not connect to the internet. In such a case, the MAC address is authenticated each time when you connect to the internet. This is a precaution against unauthorized access. Since your TV has its own MAC address, your internet service provider cannot validate the MAC address of your TV. For this reason, your TV cannot connect to the internet.

Contact your internet service provider and request information on how to connect a different device, such as your TV, to the internet.

It is also possible that the connection may not be available due to a firewall problem. If you think this causes your problem, contact your internet service provider. A firewall might be the reason of a connectivity and discovery problem while using the TV in Audio Video Sharing mode or while browsing via Audio Video Sharing feature.


What should I do if the Domain is Invalid?

Ensure that you have already logged on to your PC with an authorized username/password and also ensure that your domain is active, prior to sharing any files in your media server program on your PC.

What is HBBTV System?

HbbTV (Hybrid Broadcast Broadband TV) is a new industry standard that seamlessly combines TV services delivered via broadcast with services delivered via broadband and also enables access to Internet only services for consumers using connected TVs and set-top boxes. Services delivered through HbbTV include traditional broadcast TV channels, catch-up services, video-on-demand, electronic programme guide, interactive advertising, personalisation, voting, games, social networking and other multimedia applications.

HbbTV applications are available on channels where they are signalled by the broadcaster. The broadcaster marks one application as “autostart” and this one is started by the platform automatically. The autostart applications are generally launched with a small red button icon to notify the user that there is an HbbTV application on that channel. Press the red button to open the application page. After the page is displayed you can go back to the initial red button icon state by pressing the red button again. You can toggle between the red button icon mode and full UI mode of the application via pressing red button.

HbbTV applications use keys on the remote control to interact with the user. When an HbbTV application is launched, the control of some keys are owned by the application. For example, numeric channel selection may not work on a teletext application where the numbers indicate teletext pages.

HbbTV requires AV streaming capability for the platform. There are numerous applications providing VOD (video on demand) and catch-up TV services. The user can use play, pause, stop, forward, and rewind keys on the remote control to interact with the AV content.
