Can I connect my laptop to this device to use the tv as output?

It's a piece of junk, I had to turn around a buy a Roku to use. Sorry, but if soon enough return it.

I plug it into my HDMI port on my 51 inch TV and if you have good internet, it will WIFI form your router. . However, my internet is not good enough so has yet to work but if I had good DSL or cable, then I have no doubt it would work as advertised.

Yes. I was able to connect my laptop to my Samsung HDTV. My computer did not have an HDMI at the time, so this worked out fine.

I'm sorry, I don't have the answer for that question, I only use it to connect my laptop to the smarttv.

The HDMI output of your laptop must be connected to an HDMI input on your TV. The USB port on a TV is for reading files off of a flash drive like music or pictures or whatever. Some TVs only have the USB port there for diagnostic purposes and it can only be used by a repair technician. It cannot receive an audio or video input from another device such as a laptop through the USB connection.

You would likely need an adapter or two. This does not have an HDMI port in the laptop, so you would have to convert a VGA connection to HDMI. You might be better suited with a Chromecast or ROKU device if you want to stream content to your TV from your network.

You can, but you should be sure that the port on your laptop is a video OUT and not video IN. Check your manufacturer specs to be sure.

If your TV has audio in, then yes. Make sure the red/white ports are labeled "in" and not out. If so, then your laptop should output sound to your TV. Also make sure the audio device on your laptop is set to the headphone jack.

It has an HDMI output and a component output. If you have an HDMI slot on your computer that can receive it will work. I do not know of a laptop that has a receiving HDMI input, only an output. If you are referring to a computer not a laptop then you should be able to get the appropriate hardware to make it work if it does not already have it. Most newer computers have the option to install an HDMI input to receive tv channels etc. from other sources like satellite receivers. Good luck!

You should be able to make this connection-if the TV has a vga connector on it. It likely does.

If your laptop has a DVI output (and a lot do NOT), then yes. Sound would still be through your laptop's audio system, not the TV.

Not natively, you need an external device. I used a simple bridge from Belkin, works like a champ. Belkin Universal Wireless HDTV Adapter (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

Provided you have a HMDI,DVI,or lighting port on your computer, yes. You may need an adapter cable, but virtually any computer in the last couple decades will be able output a signal the TV will use.

You can connect your laptop to the TV, provided your TV has an HDMI cable - for most televisions. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S

I have looked into this before. To hook it up to your TV all you need are the AV cables (red, yellow, white) and the A/V connectoions on the back of TV. As far as hooking it up to the laptop I have been unable to find a way to make that happen. Employees at Fry's Electronics (and I asked oh, probably 7 or 8) all said that it cannot be done (or rather that they were unaware of a way that it could be one). I have been unable to make this happen as of yet. I was looking into trying one of the set of transmitter/relievers they sell on amazon for the drone copters that transmit A/V. I Think they are called Bosco or Fat Shark is the name brand. I'm sure there is a way to make that happen but so far have not found it.

Yes, just check for your laptop video output, all you need is the hdmi cable or vga.

No. This device is for when you want to go from an older computer without HDMI output to a display that has only HDMI, like some TVs.

Yes. You can use it similar to a wireless projector. Once you connect it to your TV, everything you do on your computer/laptop will be shown on the TV
