Check the distance between the appliance and
the wireless router (Wi-Fi network).
• If the distance between the appliance and the
wireless router is too far, the signal strength
becomes weak. It may take a long time to
register or installation may fail.
2 Turn off the Mobile data or Cellular Data on
your smartphone.

→ Cellular → Cellular Data .

NOTE
• To verify the Wi-Fi connection, check that Wi-Fi
icon on the control panel is lit.

only. To check your network frequency, contact your
Internet service provider or refer to your wireless
router manual.
• LG SmartThinQ is not responsible for any network
connection problems or any faults, malfunctions, or
errors caused by network connection.
• If the appliance is having trouble connecting to the
Wi-Fi network, it may be too far from the router.
Purchase a Wi-Fi repeater (range extender) to
improve the Wi-Fi signal strength.
• The Wi-Fi connection may not connect or may
be interrupted because of the home network
environment.
• The network connection may not work properly
depending on the Internet service provider.
• The surrounding wireless environment can make
the wireless network service run slowly.

problems with the wireless signal transmission.
Unplug the appliance and wait about a minute
before trying again.

disable the firewall or add an exception to it.

combination of English letters and numbers. (Do
not use special characters.)

depending on the mobile operating system (OS)

WEP , you may fail to set up the network. Please
change it to other security protocols ( WPA2 is
recommended) and register the product again.
