• If you use WPS for network set-up, the security
settings of the wireless LAN router activate, and any
equipment previously connected to the wireless LAN
in a non-secure status will be disconnected from the
network.
In this case, activate the security settings of the
disconnected equipment and then reconnect. Or, you
can deactivate the security settings of the wireless
LAN router, and then connect the equipment to a TV
in a non-secure status.
