What Is Sec Linkshare Samsung

Sec Linkshare Samsung is secure link share aka access point.

It didn’t do much on the WiFi reception, but I found out that after enabling SWL, other devices could hardly find my regular access point any more.

Somehow, a very strong access point appeared pushing away all access points. The new access point had an SSID like SEC_LinkShare_######.

Though this wasn’t mentioned in the PDF manual of my TV, a quick search on SEC_LinkShare +SSID indicated in the direction of Samsung devices.

So, when you enable SWL on your TV:

your TV will become a local secured access point
the SWL access point will be called SEC_LinkShare _###### (with 6 digits at the end)
you cannot influence the WiFi channel used by the SWL access point
there is no information on the password to connect to the SWL access point
the SWL access point will potentially have a higher signal than access points further away (effectively blocking them)

Conclusion: Unless you have other Samsung devices that need the SWL, don’t activate it on your TV.
