Precautions for wireless network

  • This Projector supports the IEEE 802.11 a /b /g /n /ac communication protocols. Video files stored on a device connected to the Projector via a Home Network may not play back smoothly. Some of the IEEE 802.11 communication protocols may not be supported depending on the model or geographical area.
  • To use wireless network, the Projector must be connected to a wireless access point or modem. If the wireless access point supports DHCP, the Projector can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the wireless network.
  • Select a channel that is not currently being used by the wireless access point. If the channel set is currently being used by the wireless access point to communicate with another device, the result is usually interference and/or a communications failure.
  • Most wireless networks have an optional security system. To enable a wireless network's security system, you need to create a password using characters and numbers. This password is then needed to connect to a security-enabled access point.

Wireless security protocols

The Projector only supports the following wireless network security protocols. The Projector cannot connect to non-certified wireless access point.

  • Authentication Modes: WEP, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK • Encryption Types: WEP, TKIP, AES

In compliance with the Wi-Fi certification specifications, Samsung Projectors do not support WEP or TKIP security encryption in networks running in the 802.11n mode. If the wireless access point supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can connect the Projector to your network using PBC (Push Button Configuration) or a PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS automatically configures the SSID and WPA key settings.
