    I am slightly puzzled that the pictures of the Network Connection Status show Wired connection LAN OK although it clearly hasn't acquired a valid IP address vi DHCP. Do you have anything plugged into the LAN ethernet port?

    Hi yes, I have a LAN cable from humax unit to the TV, also the HDMI to the TV, do I not need the LAN cable connected?

    Why have you connected. the ethernet cable to the TV.
    Unplug it and see if you get access to the WiFi settings.

    From memory, so I might be wrong! I seem to remember having problems like this. With WiFi set I couldn't access LAN. Had to do a factory reset to choose LAN. Is the reverse the same? Maybe remove Ethernet connection, reset (with all the hassle that involves), and getting a WiFi connection might be possible.

    On Humax equipment (and some others) that I've used if it is detected that the Ethernet port is being used then the Wi-Fi is automatically suppressed.

    This has come up before on Humax forums, where someone wants to connect to their router via LAN and Wi-Fi, but the Wi-Fi menu options are greyed out due to the Ethernet cable.

    Hi all, I have disconnected the LAN cable from the humax to the TV and now Wlan is accessible, I have selected it and put in my password and WOW all is now logged in to the Internet.
    Many Thanks for all your help on my dumb connections.
