    Phillips TV with net TV won't accept new wireless router?
    Phillips TV (40pfl4706) with net TV will not accept the new wireless router I had to get. Worked fine with old windstream router but not the new one. All other devices work with new router. TV just keeps giving me a "LAN feature is invalid " response. Any ideas will be appreciated.

    Did you change the name of the connection or the type of connection?

    Have you made sure your set is running the latest updates, available here: 40PFL4706/F7 Philips LCD TV 40PFL4706 102cm/40" class Full HD 1080p digital TV with Pixel Precise HD - Philips Support
    Also is the new router setup the same way as the old one ?

    Worth checking the wireless standard you are using.
    Like the Nintindo DS only uses 802.11b so often wont connect to more modern routers without adjustment.
