If this is the case, enter the proxy name(s) and port(s) your ISP provided you with. Network Info For viewing the Network settings, including the physical Ethernet MAC Address you may sometimes need for identifying the Wired network of the Streamium LCD TV. Wireless Info For viewing the Wireless settings, including the physical NIC MAC Address you may sometimes need for identifying the Wireless network of the Streamium LCD TV. Go to Signal Level to check the wireless signal quality. 29 23iF9946_12_StDFU_ENG. p65 29 8/31/04, 4:30 PM Options menu 11. 2. 1 Static IP settings If you select Static IP as your Network Mode in Network > Network Config > Network Mode, you will need to provide the Streamium LCD TV with the following manual settings for its wireless network: IP Address This is the fixed IP Address you want the Streamium LCD TV to have in your network. Preferably, choose one from the range 192. 168. xxx. xxx. Netmask Enter the same netmask throughout your network. E. g. : 255. 255. 255. 000 Gateway Enter the IP Address of your Internet gateway router, Wireless Base Station, or network host computer. (E. g. : 192. 168. 0. 1 for the host computer that provides Internet Connection Sharing. ) DNS 1 Usually, this would be the same address as the Gateway Address above. However, some Internet Service Providers (ISP) provide you with separate Dynamic Name Server addresses you need to use. This should be a valid IP Address, like xxx. xxx. xxx. xxx DNS 2 See DNS 1. 11. 3 Preferences menu The Preferences menu gives you access to preferred settings. It copies all data arriving at one port to the other ports. A switch is similar to a hub, but is able to handle different network speeds at each port. Gateway routers and wireless base stations route network traffic from one network to another (e. g. from a wired network to the Internet, or from a wireless network to a wired network or to the Internet). INTERNET · Important: Wired and Wireless components may be linked together to provide a variety of network layouts/ topologies. 32 23iF9946_12_StDFU_ENG. p65 32 8/31/04, 4:30 PM Chapter 13 - Advanced wireless network information What are wireless network connections? Your wireless network adapter uses a wireless protocol (called IEEE 802. 11b/g or WiFi) to communicate with the Streamium LCD TV by means of radio transmissions. WiFi radio waves travel outwards from the antenna in all directions, and can transmit through walls and floors. WiFi can theoretically reach up to 200 meters in an open environment and reach speeds of up to 11 (b) or 54 (g) megabits per second (Mbps) at close range. However, the actual network range and data throughput rate will always be less, depending on the wireless signal quality. Factors determining your network range and network speed · Wireless signals travel farther outside of buildings, and when the wireless components are in direct line of sight to one another. Putting wireless components high up helps avoid physical obstacles and provides better coverage. Building construction such as metal framing and concrete or masonry walls and floors will reduce radio signal strength. Avoid putting wireless components next to walls and other large, solid objects; or next to large metal objects such as computers, monitors, and appliances. Wireless signal range, speed, and strength can be affected by interference from neighbouring wireless networks and devices. [. . . ] Remote control Standby Cleaning the set Still no results? Glossary RGB signals : These are the three video signals, Red Green Blue, which make up the picture. Using these signals improves picture quality. S-VHS Signals: These are 2 separate Y/C video signals from the S-VHS and Hi-8 recording standards. The luminance signals Y (black and white) and chrominance signals C (colour) are recorded separately on the tape. This provides better picture quality than with standard video (VHS and 8 mm) where the Y/C signals are combined to provide only one video signal. [. . . ]
