I can't get the ATV to recognize the network. There is no TV where I want to use it. I thought I could just connect it to the ATV and the projector.

This allows you to connect the Apple TV to a projector to get the display working. Has nothing to do with the network. Apple TV's require a network to function.

There is no WIFI receiver in the unit. Rather, this is a converter for a unit (like an iPad) that received WIFI, but has no VGA output. Essentially, this unit makes it possible for a unit with HDMI to connect to a projector without HDMI. That's why it "dumbs down" the signal to VGA. I hope that helps.

maybe, you have to set up a certain resolution in your apple tv, i had that with a similar adapter.

That doesn't have anything to do with this adapter, that's something with your Apple TV, and my recommendation is resetting it, and trying it again. Also, check to see which wireless band you are using 5GHz or 2.4, not knowing which apple TV you have or your wireless settings, it will be very difficult to help you.

Thank You both so much!!! I FINALLY figured it out. I had to plug the wireless grey box into the BACK of the TV and not into the connection panel on the front of the tv. Geez! For non tech savvy people like myself, the company could be a bit more detailed about where to plug it into on a tv. Like most big screen tv's, there are quite a few places on both front and back to plug into. Thanks again for your input!

Hello Synquetta,Check the side or back of your TV, if it has "HDMI" then you can connect it.Hope it helps.Erik

You'd need to have a cable box to convert the cable into a usable signal. The cable box will probably have an HDMI jack that would be the best way to connect to the projector.

Just plug link stick into a USB port and turn on the Internet with your remote, if that dosnt work turn on your co mounter and try again, maybe your TV is not set up for the Internet

Not yet, I am not able to figure out how to get the system to view from outside my network.

Yeap. Just did that last week at home, but I have only the AV200s. Bought a single AV200 adapter and added it to my network. Make sure you read instructions in the box on adding to your existing network. I am however only seeing single AV200 and AV500 adapters - not seeing a single AV600 adapter available for purchase here : (

Be sure to have Ethernet (Cat5 or Cat6) cables. You will need to plug it directly into your router (wireless or wired). The TV should automatically find it and create its own settings. Good luck!

I had someone try to set it up as such but it did not work. Today I am having BrightHouse hook up Internet to it. I think it is meant only as an Internet Interactive television.

I'd recommend returning the projector if you need it to connect to anything else but a older iphone or ipad with the old 30 pin connection. Any additional cables are impossible to find and 3M doesn't manufacture them anymore from what I understand.

We bought the Xj256 because we wanted the wireless capability however we have NEVER been able to get it to work! It will not allow our computers, either MAC or PC to wirelessly connect, so we have to plug in with our computer. We were hoping to do it wireless from our ipad. I think that next time we will try with apple tv somehow. It is an awesome projector though. These are the best projectors we found.

hello friend, wanted to do the same as you, but in my tv did not work, try connecting to other terminals and never got a picture, I think the cables are defective or do not work, I do not know, I do not work for me

Yes, my solution was to return the Adapter and run a Cat6 Ethernet cable from the router down through the cellar to the livingroom and up the wall to my TV. Vierra Link works fine now !! Ended up saving money with a little more work. Plus it's always connected.

I noticed that the most recent firmware update wasn't working - it couldn't find my network. I went back to an older version of the firmware and it worked fine. Maybe that will help you.

I have the same problem. I can only hear the audio over the Apple TV but not the video. If I had it to do over again I would buy a Roku. Apple the signal a lot.

I did not have much luck with this device, I ended up going with a wifi solution for our projectors. Best of luck

As of 11/5/14 there is NO driver for OS X Yosemite. If you have already upgraded your Mac to run the latest OS, you CANNOT do a direct wireless connection to the projector.
