Having trouble getting your LG TV to save your WiFi network settings?
Basically, you turn on WPS mode on the dongle then go tell your wireless router to search for a WPS-enabled device. You have 120 seconds to get the two to talk to each other. In my case, that worked fine and the dongle is now connected to the internet. Everything worked fine after that. To connect a Bluetooth device to an LG Smart TV, first attach a Bluetooth USB dongle to the TV's USB port if it lacks a built-in Bluetooth adapter. Turn on Bluetooth from the TV's SmartShare app in the menu, ensuring it's discoverable, and then pair the two devices. LG AN-WF100 Wi-Fi USB adapter provides instant access to NetCast content such as Netflix, YouTube, Skype, Picasa and Yahoo! Set your TV free from connection clutter with LG's Wireless Media Kit. The kit sends an uncompressed, full HD 1080p signal to your TV from up to 50 feet away, even through walls and doors. Compatible with all 2010 LG HDTV models featuring NetCast. Wifi adapter model AN-WF100 works on the LG 47LM6200 TV watch my latest video, we still have this tv and it's still going strong: https://youtu.be/hmjO51dL5FQ.
Well, your not alone. This seems to be a common problem with LG TVs, Sony TV, Samsung and other big manufacturers. Fortunately, there’s a simple solution that will allow your LG to save your wireless network settings and you won’t need to manually enter the information every time you restart your “SmartTV” (just not smart enough to automatically detect WiFi settings).
The trick is entering your network SSID information manually instead of selecting it from the generated list. Once this is done your settings should be saved and the next time you turn your LG TV on, the network should be automatically detected (it may take a couple of minutes).
Depending on your software version, you may need to choose “Set Expert” to enter your SSID information. Below are a few screenshots from a 3D LG Smart TV.
After you enter your network name and password, you may be asked if you want to manually enter your IP Address, Sub Mask, etc. You can select the option for it to automatically detect your IP Address and other information. The LG TV will still save your WiFI settings. After the TV is connected to the internet, turn it off, then back on to see if it will automatically recognize your WiFi network. Give it a couple of minutes to connect and hopefully this solved your problem or try changing the WiFi security on your router setting from (WPA/WPA2) to WEP. Go back to the Smart TV and reconnect to your network with your selected security key.

The solution for me was to create an LG user account using the menu on the smart tv. Once I did that the tv would stop losing its wi-fi settings every time that I turned the tv off
