The Quick Connect feature under Network & Internet settings lets you connect your TV to the same Wi-Fi network as a compatible Android™ phone without manually entering the Wi-Fi password. Quick Connect is intended only for sharing the mobile device’s current Wi-Fi connection with the TV. To connect the TV to a different network or if your phone does not support Quick Connect, enter the Wi-Fi password manually.
