I would like to bring my Hisense HD-TV into my WiFi network; can I merely connect this to TV's USB port & stream video from a computer?

No I do not think so. It is plug and play for a PC and does come with Drivers. I have not tried just plugging it into a tv but doubt that will work. There are normally proprietary wifi devices for tvs and this is not one of them.

Easy to install, comes with cd and drivers, better to place on the back of the computer, since on the front it can be knocked off. Great product. And it works really well, a control panel shows on desktop allowing you the choices of what network to use. Yes, buy it.

NO! This TV is not internet capable. The USB port is only for viewing image files, such as jpeg's. The HDMI ports are for DVR's ect. Sorry about that. There is no input to use as a computer monitor either. It is a very good TV. Hope this helps.

You would have to obtain a wireless adapter. We recommend Mediabridge wireless adapters. One can be found here: http://www.amazon.com/Medialink-Wireless-N-USB-Adapter-Mbps/dp/B002RM08RE/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1389674160&sr=8-2&keywords=media+link

I have the same question. How can I connect this tv to my serviio dlna server?

Yes, do a search for "Google Chromecast HDMI Streaming Media Player". This provides wireless connectivity to HDMI...

This device is first and foremost for connecting your computer to a wireless network. It will not necessarily connect to a cable, satellite or over the air television connection. However, once connected to the internet or a network (such as one in your home), it is fast enough to allow for HD content to be transmitted. I personally have connected it to a WD TV-Live box, which then connects to my home network. I can then stream Netflix or video files I have on a computer on my home network.

No you can't, but you can plug a roku into the HDMI and plug the USB drive into it and watch it that way

Yes, but you have to buy Samsung's expensive USB wireless adapter, it will not recognize a regular USB wireless adapter, otherwise it works fine and I have it networked to all of my other and Newer smart TVs. TV is limited with AllShare, most of my computer folders that I share on the network exceed the specs. Therefore, I use my Netgear Centria and Windows to access shared media from that TV. Picture is awesome, best one in the house for viewing.

No. I think the USB port on most TV's only allow firmware updates to be performed, not video to be streamed. Call or email StarTech: www.startech.com/Tel: 1-800-265-1844 to verify.

Dear Wayne, Thank you for your question regarding our Micro HDMI to HDMI cable. The Hisense tablet does have a micro HDMI port so the cable would be fully compatible. Please contact us at service@bluerigger.com if you have any additional questions. Thanks, BlueRigger LLCservice@bluerigger.com

Of course it does, I bought it specifically for the hisense sero pro. And it needs no power, you simply plug the hdmi end into the t.v. and the usb mini end into the tablet. If you're looking for something to allow you to view your tablet on your hd tv then this is what you need to get.

There are no software or drivers needed to use this device. There is an integrated circuit inside that converts the digital HDMI signal to an analog vga, but this is transparent to you the user. Just plug it in and use it. There should be no setup required. Works with Linux too, just in case you are interested.

I have mines hooked up to my lap top and I can hook the laptop to the TV monitor and see it like that. You can't hook it up directly to your TV be a use it has to be connected to wifi

A question: Will this device enable me to use Netflix streaming on my Toshiba HDTV? I have wireless internet in my home.

You would likely use sn HDMI cable which you have to purchase separately to use a wifi enabled player. The TV has two HDMI; one VGA; one cable; yellow/white/red composite; and red/white inputs. I have streamed Netflix and DVD using the VGA and audio through the headphone jack cable with a laptop that does not have an HDMI jack.

ASUS sells a device called Miracast Dongle which plugs into your TV's HDMI port. You can then stream from your tablet to your TV.

It must be a direct connection. The HDMI signal is not being converted into any type of network protocol that would be necessary for routing.
