I hooked my cable from my netgear router to my smart tv since hula locks up a lot on wireless.

Make sure the TV has the connection on it then yes! Need the go into menu and indicate wired vs wifi connection also after you run wire from router.

I wouldn't see why it wouldn't work, if the tv supports an Ethernet port, it will work

It probably would. Check the router's outlet for the connector. It should look like that of a telephone, but not exactly. My guess is if it is a router for a wifi device it should work.

That is exactly what I did! I had to hard wire Samsung/TIVO to router to transfer programs. worked great!

I have Verizon Quantum router. If you connect using Ethernet it will drop your range signal on anything that is wireless. It does work but we have a lot of laptops and tablets.

I purchased a wireless bridge but I was not able to make it work. I don't believe it was the fault of the unit, I just couldn't get the bridge to receive a signal from my router. I achieved what I wanted by purchasing a Roku so I returned the bridge. I will try again when I get more time. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

If I'm reading this correctly, it sounds like the wifi on your Samsung smart TV is connecting to your Netgear wifi router. Plugging your Arris modem into the Netgear will net the same result and you'll have the telephony jack on the Arris for phone connecting.

Yes, this device will solve your problem if you set it up according to the directions and make sureto locateit centered between your wireless router and the TV. I have a setup like yours and have no problems.

Nope. Connects right to the wireless home network already set up. You can find more information on samsungs website but that was a requirement when I was shopping for tvs.

I have my Apple TV connected directly to the range extender and works well with it. Air play works fine (I.e. Watching an Amazon Prime video streamed from my IPad). The only time I had some issues was when I tried to use everything through wifi. The connection, was kinda slow, I guess Ethernet will always beat wifi when it comes to video streaming.

If your TV has Ethernet connection socket, then this device can help you connect the TV to internet. The device is able to harness WiFi signal and output it through Ethernet port. Then you can connect your TV through Ethernet cable.

Thanks for your post on this discussion regarding wireless connection for this TV. I still have a few questions.When you unhook your gaming adaptor and connect it to TV, you still need to connect your wireless router back to PC. So in that case, will this trick work using two regular wireless routers, one connected to PC and on to TV (after the wep key step)? I am not into gaming, so I don't want to spend a lot on the gmaing adaptor.

Gary L. Lister, Provided the router supports any of the 802.11a/b/g/n protocols, it should work just fine. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products. --Mr. S

Any router will work, and the one you mentioned would do just fine. Just make sure you turn on Universal Plug N Play option on the router and you're set to stream media directly from your home computer to the Samsung.

What about Wi-Fi? Does this T.V. come WiFi ready out of the box? Or do we have to buy a WiFi adapter in order to access the Samsung Internet Apps?

For internet connectivity, it works on Wifi also, you don't need an Ethernet cable. However, you need a HDMI cable to connect it to TV.

If your Samsung TV has built-in WiFi and is internet ready. Why, would you need this? you should be able to pick your WiFi signal thought your wireless router and connect your TV to it. The Edup Ep-ms8512 is a wireless adapter that has two uses. One, use it as WiFi booster to get better signal to a computer or laptop. Two, use as a wireless adapter when a laptop or computer desktop does not have a wireless card inside. I don't think it can be used to make a TV wireless because it's not supported for that. Hope this help.

RhymeBoy.G, Thanks for your post. I want to connect our satellite receiver, blu ray disk device, and plasma tv to the internet by cat5 cable. We have the following: dsl modem&gt;D-link wifi router&gt;desktop pc&gt;wifi laptops. I was not certain if I could connect the entertainment devices through a switch connected to the wifi router. Now I know this will work! Thanks.
