If you select "Brighter" or "Darker" repeatedly, the original picture may disappear depending on the color you used to draw your picture. Select "Restart" or "Return to hold" to begin another drawing. In the future you can temporarily save your drawings by touching the "Hold" button. This allows you to experiment with the Drawing function and restore the image to the place where you touched the "Hold" function.

After pressing "Search/Update", try to "Connect" again. Even if there is + in the avail column, it does not mean it is configured correctly. Check the connection configuration and try again. ƒ LocationFree™ TV may not be able to access all wireless hot spots.
