why not just hook up an android or IOS device to your TV? stream IP camera to the app of your choice, and use video out from your device to your TV.

Sorry - I have no idea! Once you hook the Netgear player to your tv it should guide you through the steps to access your wireless internet service.

first thing you must verify if the new tv models come with integrated wi fi already, otherwise would need to have usb port to use any dispositive including the realtek 8191.

I think you need to purchase an additional wireless adapter. I am connected to the network via cable.

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.

The set is wifi "READY" but requires a purchase of part TY-WL20U WIRELESS ADAPTER for around $131.00 on Amazon hope it helps the only other option is to use a CAT5 cable and plug directly into the TV via the network port to hook to the Internet

You can use Apple TV, roku or any other TV watching modules. Just make sure you have internet and a wifi router. My Verizon fios router works for streaming but just make sure your router allows for proper bandwidth to allow the speed and size of wifi signals you need to support all of your devices.

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)

I used a Linksys WGA54G gaming adaptor, It's really easy to do the instructions inside the router explain how to do it. Basically what you do is disconnect your current wireless router from your PC, then you hook the pc up to the gaming adaptor and enter your wep key and it automatically sets everything else up for you. Then you unhook the gaming adaptor from the pc and hook it to the TV, now you have the ability to stream music, videos pictures wirelessly. It basically fools the TV into thinking it's connected to w wired hook up.

You need to have a wireless access point on your network and have it configured correctly. The actual internet service you have doesn't have anything to do with the connectivity of this television. Check the TV's wifi specs and purchase a wireless access point (sometimes referred to as a router with a wireless radio) that is capable of transmitting a signal that is compatible with the TV's wireless card. If you are unsure how to do any of this, I'd recommend hiring someone to set it up for you.

You should as I do. The setup is pretty simple. Instructions are provided. You're device will need to be truly equipped with wi-fi capabilities. If it's a device that enables smart apps on your tv, those usually still require an ethernet connection to a modem or a device like this. But this will at least provide a remote hard wire access point in those situations.

There is.a Smart share feature on the LN5700 that offers the options of " connect mobile device; connect PC." I connected the PC wirelessly and was able to select files to view on the tv. List says photos, videos and music.

I managed to connect with wifi-n. The problem is the TV is very slow and it's preferable to add a third party streamer.

It uses an HDMI adaptor. most newer model PC and laptops will connect. I believe there is wireless capabilities as well but I don't use it. There wasn't a cable/connector in the box so I had to buy one. Take care!

If you are talking about the usb that is included in the bundle, it is the wireless adapter. If you connect the DVR to the internet you will get a more comprehensive "tv guide" and you can do software updates to the unit. Also I think you can stream with it.

I can't confirm usage because I don't have a receiver or compatible TV, but it has the Intel Centrino N 2230 combo bluetooth/wifi chip that appears to support widi: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/wireless-products/centrino-wireless-n-2230.html

If you are planning to connect this TV to your home network through a 802.11 wireless router or access point, you will first need to buy the optional WiFi adapter that allows the TV to connect to a wireless network. Honestly, I didn't bother with the added expense of the adapter because of all the lower ratings that adapter has received here. Your TV also has an Ethernet port on the back of it, and I used that port on my TV to connect to my home network. It is more robust than wireless, and I don't have to worry about security holes in my network that a wireless network can introduce if it isn't configured correctly.
