Hello and good day. So you are wondering how to connect to the internet. Are you using a cable provider that has a router to connect to your cable tv? If so then you will need to purchase an ethernet cable and physically connect the cable in the back of the tv and the other side of the cable connect directly into the router.

If you have a wireless internet connection with N signal then you will have to go to the guided network setup to configure the tv.

To get to the guided network setup you press MENU. Use the arrow buttons to navigate to HELP and press OK. Highlight Guided Setup and press OK. Highlight Network Setup and press OK. Follow the on-screen instructions and once you are done press the EXIT button.
