Connection methods
Inexperienced users often worry that connecting a smart device to the network will cause them difficulties, since few people are familiar with such technologies. In reality, the manipulation is much easier than it seems. You just need to decide on a specific connection method. Most often they choose one of two options - using a router and via a laptop.
The first method is not much different from the usual connection of equipment to the network - a traditional router is used for this. Features of the procedure are as follows:
- First you need to establish a connection and configure the router;
- You should go into the TV settings, where manipulations are performed separately. You need to find the network settings menu and select the wireless connection mode, after which the connection is established automatically due to the presence of the built-in DHCP option;
- The actions do not end there - you need to go back to the menu, to the “Network Settings” item and follow the prompts that appear on the screen;
- A list of possible devices that you can connect to will appear on the display; you should select yours.
Interesting! The presence of an additional useful WPS function will greatly simplify and speed up the process. It is present only on modern devices. When turned on, the television device automatically searches for available networks and connects to the appropriate one.
The use of a laptop for manipulation is chosen if there is no router. To do this, you will need to create a separate channel to connect the two devices, which will additionally allow you to play files of various formats on the TV from your computer. If you have the Internet on the latter, you will be able to access the network from the TV set.
To connect, an access point is created on the laptop, which is not so difficult to do thanks to the presence of a built-in wireless module, similar to a router. Typically, such a connection is much more reliable and stable than external devices. Next you need to create a separate group for connection, for which you need to perform a series of sequential actions:
- Activate command line;
- Enter the code “netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=My_virtual_WiFi key=12345678 keyUsage=persistent”, making sure that no errors are made;
- After pressing Enter, the command is launched and drivers are automatically loaded for distribution;
- The command “netsh wlan start hostednetwork” is intended to start the network.
Healthy! Regardless of the manufacturer and model of SMART-TV, the principle of operation differs little from each other.
