Will this device work to enable internet Tv connection? I'm looking to buy a new HDTV, will this allow me to make an internet connection to my existing wireless net &amp; get internet apps on the TV?

Hello from Medialink, This device will not work with an HDTV or BluRay Player or anything that does not run on an Operating System. Unfortunately the TV companies force you to buy their brand of wireless adapter (which is why they can charge so much for it). Thanks, Medialink Products 856-216-8222 support@medialinkproducts.com

Personally had no luck with the hdmi port working on this unit as others reported. Another OTG Hub or Dongle will allow this to work, i believe Aerb makes one more affordable than the Samsung hub. You can also look into a Samsung Allcast. Personally it's whether you want the device wireless and to use the phones screen, or to use a bluetooth keyboard and remote the phone in a hub wired to the TV.On the previous answer, if you use this unit "and it works", the Tablet or Smartphone enters mirroring mode, basically whats on the screen goes to the monitor or tv. No other apps are needed. Personally had no luck with the hdmi port working on this unit as others reported.

For this tv, I have actually never tried if it's able to connect to internet. I purchased a blue-ray player at the same time and that's how I get connected. I do want to mention the quality in picture and sound is outstanding!

It must be a wired connection, there is no wireless on this model. Also this is not a "smart" tv so the internet connection on this tv is more for software and firmware updates than anything else. You won't find all kinds of apps on this model

I have used one successfully and I'm guessing you could also use a Google Chromecast to access programing available through the Chromecast and your tablet or smart phone. On its own the TV is not a "smart" TV and cannot access internet programming

Worked on my LG TV that preceded the internet capabilities. Comes with it's own remote control. Works by direct connect to internet, or Wi-Fi.

This adapter only allows certain televisions to connect with WiFi. There are no Apps or programs installed. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S

I looked through the owners manual and I don't believe this TV has wireless capabilities, which you would need to have Netfilx on it. You might need to look at getting some type of add on device or a wireless capable DVD player. That's how I got Netflix on my TV.

Honestly...this product is not going to do anything for your TV. You need something like the "Mini MK802 Android 4.0 Google TV Box HD IPTV Player PC Allwinner A10 1G DDR3" if your goal is to make your TV a "smart" TV. I have not bought one, but it is on my to buy list as my TV has a USB port, but does not have an ethernet port. This will allow me to get the Android Netflix app etc. Amazon won't let me include a link but you can buy that device here at Amazon.com

Via ethernet cable. I believe the Panasonic wifi adapter will work with this tv as well, but it didn't come standard with this model. If your internet doesn't connect right away, go into the tv menu, then network settings. Test it out, should work, then do a firmware update. Then go into vierracast and get the apps you want.

To my knowledge wi fi works with all tv's. If it has the ability to connect then it should connect with the Netgear.

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.

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.

I cannot establish a connection either. Some devices have very weak wifi receivers, i think this is one. I had to buy a booster for my laptop, I think I need one for this tv as well. Bummer
