router or modem to the LAN port located on the back of your Philips Android TV.

Wireless performance may be affected by various factors, including the distance between the
TV and your Wi-Fi router. To improve wireless performance, we recommend placing your Wi-Fi
router within 15 feet of your TV.

The use of open or unencrypted Wi-Fi networks is not recommended, as these networks are not
secured, and your data could be at risk.

If your Wi-Fi Router was set up by your internet service provider (ISP), you may find a sticker on
the bottom of your router indicating your Wi-Fi SSID and password.
