Hello!
Newbie here!
I have an LG OLED65B7A. It works well enough connected via ethernet cable to my network.
I want to use my LG OLED65B7A as another monitor to my laptop.
I know this can be done using some kind of wireless technology, Miracast, etc.
But do I need to have my LG OLED65B7A connected to my WiFi to set this up?
However, my LG OLED65B7A will not connect to my WiFi even though the WiFi router is just 3 feet away !
I know the WiFi is good: I have several pc's and my cellphone connected.
There is a "SCREEN SHARE" (Miracast) option in the LG OLED65B7A, but when
I select it (using the LG's remote and pressing the input button) this message
pops up:
"The device cannot be connect to your TV.
Please try again. If the issue persists, please restart you TV or
check your device."
So I'm taking this to mean that my pc laptop cannot connect to my LG OLED65B7A ?
More: when I go to the full display of options in the OLED65B7A, and go down to Network,
it tells me the Wi-Fi Connection is "Not Connected. When I then go into the Wi-Fi
Connection, it tells me,
"Wi-Fi is turned off. Turn it on to see the list of available networks that you can
connect to and additional related menu items."
Again, I know the WiFi is good: I have several pc's and my cellphone connected
to it and they work perfectly.
I've tried manually entering the SSID of my WiFi: the OLED65B7A will not see it, & will not connect.
Any hints?
What am I missing?
I have previously used an HDMI cable from my laptop into an HDMI port
of the OLED65B7A and this works for me to use the TV as a giant monitor
for my pc laptop.
Must I disconnect the wired connection first to get the OLED65B7A connected to WiFi ?
Any suggestions much appreciated!

At LG, the philosophy of Life’s Good revolves around promoting positivity and encouraging individuals to adopt an optimistic outlook on life. In alignment with this mission, the company launched the “Optimism your feed” campaign earlier this year. This initiative aims to break the cycle of negativity often perpetuated by social media algorithms, infusing online spaces with a refreshing wave of lighthearted cheer.
The “Optimism your feed” playlist features a wide collection of original content aimed at uplifting spirits and spreading hope. By engaging with this playlist, users can teach the algorithm to curate their feeds with similar positive material. Within just three weeks of its launch, the playlist amassed over 1.2 billion views across various social media platforms, demonstrating its widespread appeal and resonance with audiences around the globe.
While this campaign seeks to inject positivity into social media, traditional broadcast news often focuses on more serious narratives. In Mexico, for instance, news outlets frequently spotlight stories of violence and organized crime, fostering an atmosphere of sadness and anger that can overshadow positive messages. To counter this trend and promote the brand promise of Life’s Good through traditional media, LG Mexico partnered with Milenio Television, the country’s largest TV news network, to launch a local campaign series titled “Good News Is Also News.”
To date, the series has showcased eight true stories of resilience and hope, reminding viewers that there is more to life than negative headlines. Good news exists – and it deserves to be shared. Filled with optimism and love, this initiative has resonated with the public, garnering views and positive feedback across social media and the network’s streaming platforms.
The premiere episode features the inspiring journey of two members of the “Pinche Gringo BBQ” team, illustrating how passion and determination can turn dreams into reality. The second installment highlights a street juggler from Mexico City, known as “Corbatín,” who shares his own uplifting story.
The third episode introduces Violeta, a teacher at the LG-supported NGO “Villa de las Niñas,” who, despite facing personal loss and hardship, bravely confronts challenges and embraces the future. Following this, the fourth story, “Just Good News,” emphasizes the power individuals have to fill their social media feeds with positivity and joy. This episode aligns with the global “Optimism your feed” campaign, focusing on how algorithms can be trained to deliver uplifting stories when viewers choose to engage with positive content.
The fifth episode, titled “Seres Libres,” spotlights an animal sanctuary in Mexico City dedicated to rescuing and caring for abandoned and mistreated animals. This story illustrates how the Life’s Good message extends to all living beings, underscoring the importance of compassion and care for the natural world.
The sixth and latest installment tells the story of Litine, a Haitian migrant who arrives in Mexico in search of a better life. His journey exemplifies how brave optimism can help overcome obstacles, as he continues to pursue his dreams with a positive mindset while working at a convenience store.
Through nationwide broadcasts, Milenio Television has shared the optimistic message of Life’s Good with over 350 million people. This partnership encourages locals to embrace a positive outlook and apply the “Optimism your feed” initiative to all aspects of life – because, indeed, Life’s Good.

Designed for Ultimate Gaming Immersion, the New GX7 Features
Advanced WOLED Technology and Cutting-Edge Connectivity
SEOUL, Nov. 18, 2024 — LG Electronics (LG) is unveiling its latest, premium UltraGear OLED gaming monitor GX7 (model 27GX790A). Designed for serious gamers, the new model features a 27-inch, QHD resolution (2,560 x 1,440) WOLED display with a 0.03milliseconds Gray-to-Gray (GTG) response time and a 480Hz refresh rate – the fastest of any QHD OLED monitor. The 27GX790A, the most compact UltraGear OLED display yet, delivers enhanced gaming immersion with exceptional picture quality, silky-smooth performance and 4-side virtually borderless design. It also works seamlessly with the newest graphics cards, thanks to an array of advanced connectivity options, including DisplayPort 2.1.
The all-new 27GX790A is equipped with LG’s WOLED display technology, which employs a white OLED light source with color filters to produce accurate RGB colors and impressive screen brightness. This technology provides a high contrast ratio, vibrant colors, deep blacks and excellent motion clarity – even during the most fast-paced gaming action – LG’s WOLED tech has earned the new UltraGear OLED gaming monitor both VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification and highest VESA ClearMR tier.
Additionally, the 27GX790A offers NVIDIA G-SYNC® compatibility and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro support, further enhancing the gaming experience by eliminating distracting screen-tearing and flickering. The application of LG’s Anti-Glare & Low Reflection (AGLR) Coating provides a more comfortable gaming experience in brighter rooms, enabling gamers to see what’s happening on screen without difficulty.
Incorporating DisplayPort 2.1 and HDMI 2.1 interfaces, the 27-inch UltraGear OLED gaming monitor ensures compatibility with the latest consoles and gaming PCs, as well as next-generation GPUs expected to launch in early 2025. DisplayPort 2.1 yields a 67 percent increase in bandwidth compared to DisplayPort 1.4, meaning it can support higher resolutions and refresh rates.
Contributing to a cleaner gaming setup, the monitor’s slim, flat L-shaped stand lets users place their keyboard on top of its base and offers ergonomic comfort and customizability with a swivel range of -30 to 30 degrees. It also comes with a 4-pole headphone jack to allow convenient in-game communications via headset and supports DTS Headphone:X. DTS’s three-dimensional audio solution for headphones provides accurate sound positioning, helping users pinpoint where noises are coming from – which can mean the difference between victory and defeat in intense FPS or online battle royale games.
“An ideal choice for serious gamers, the 27GX790A boasts a 27-inch OLED screen with an exceptionally fast 480Hz refresh rate,” said YS Lee, vice president and head of the IT business unit of LG Business Solutions Company. “Our new UltraGear OLED gaming monitor is perfect for both console and PC gaming, offering a range of connectivity options and compatibility with the latest gaming hardware. The LG UltraGear brand will continue to provide high-performance monitors that enhance every aspect of the gaming experience.”

I'm having this problem with LG Oled 65c16LA with WebOs Version 03.40.85
When I turn off the TV, it goes into standby mode.
After 2 minutes the red standby LED turns off and it is no longer possible to turn the TV back on with the remote or with the power on button.
It is then necessary to unplug the power supply, wait a few minutes and reconnect it.
So the TV goes back to standby and you can turn it on again. In use everything works.
Is it a software problem? How can I solve it?
Thank you
