There are a lot of opportunities for a TV on Android TV. We will definitely consider everything in separate articles.

You basically bought TVs with Smart TV for what to watch online movies, install some applications and games, have access to different movies and photos that are on your computer, etc.

When I chose a TV, I immediately looked towards LG with Web OS (which we connected to the Internet in the article). But, it so happened that I bought a Philips 43PUS7150/12 (2015 model). Now we will connect it to the Internet. If you have a different model, then it's okay, almost everything is the same there.

Of course, you must have configured wifi network. That is, the router that distributes it. Well, the Internet via Wi-Fi should work. And the TV must be within range of your home Wi-Fi network. Also, the TV must have a built-in Wi-Fi receiver. Or, a proprietary, external adapter PTA128/00 is connected.

Connecting Philips (Android TV) to Wi-Fi

If during setup (when first turned on) If you are not connected to the Internet, then this can be done from the Android TV settings themselves. Turn on the TV, and press the button on the remote control with the image of the house.

Choose an item Wired or WiFi, and press the right arrow on the remote control.

Choose an item Network connection.

Please note that Philips TV can be connected to Wi-Fi without entering a password, but through WPS, or WPS with pin code.

It works like this: select the WPS item, and activate the WPS function on the router with a special button, which is usually located on the device case. The TV will connect to the router. By selecting the WPS item with a pin code, you will need to specify the pin code set on your router. If you have not changed it, then it can be indicated on a sticker on the bottom of the router.

If your Philips TV does not connect to Wi-Fi

First of all, try restarting your router. (simply unplug and power on).

Also, be sure to make sure that you enter the correct password to connect to the wireless network. If you forgot your password, you can try. If you enter the password incorrectly, then at first the inscription will "hang" for a very long time Connection...

And then, most likely, the inscription will appear Can't find network.

What else you can try to do: change the password to a new one of 8 digits, reset the router settings, and configure it again. If the TV does not want to connect to a wireless network in any way, then you can try connecting it to another network, if possible.

Advanced wireless network settings

By choosing the settings for wired and wireless networks in the Android TV system, you can also set static data (IP address, DNS) to connect to the network. Just go to the tab Network configuration, and choose Static IP address. And then, on the tab Setting a static IP address set the required parameters.

You can also view the parameters of the network to which you are currently connected. To do this, select the tab in the settings View network settings.

Also, you can completely turn off Wi-Fi on the Philips TV, and turn it back on. For this, there is an item WiFi on/off.
