Dynamicversus Static IPAddresses
If the networkrequiresa dynamic IPaddress,usean ADSL modemor routerthat supports
the DynamicHostConfigurationProtocol(DHCP).Modemsand toutersthat supportDHCP
automaticallyprovidethe IP address,subnetmask,gatewayand DNSvaluesthe TV needsto
accessthe Internet,so they do not haveto be enteredmanually.Most homenetworksuse a
dynamicIPaddress.
If the networkrequiresa static IPaddress,enterthe IPaddress,subnetmask,gateway,and DNS
valuesmanuallywhensetting up the networkconnection.To get the IPaddress,subnetmask,
gatewayand DNSvalues,contactyour InternetServiceProvider(ISP).
If the networkrequiresa static IPaddress,usean ADSL modemthat supportsDHCP.ADSL
modemsthat support DHCPalso allow static IPaddresses.
Ethernet
Ethernetis a LAN (LocalArea Network)that usescoaxial cablesstandardizedby the IEEE.
ComponentConnection
Componentconnectionsare mostly usedfor gameconsolesandtransmit the video signal by
splitting it into a luminancesignal (Y)and two color signals (Pb and Pr).Theconnectoris marked
as [ComponentIN]_(Pr,Pb,Y) on the back of the TV.On somedevices,it is sometimesmarked
as Cr,Cb,Y. Cb and Cr arethe digital conversionsof the Pband Prsignals.
Theconnectorsare normally color-codedred (R),blue (B),and green(G) andoffer the best
picturequality possiblefor an analogconnection.
