Do you have to have an LG (brand) wi-fi adaptor? Can I connect any brand wirless adapter to my LG TV or does it have to be the expensive LG brand?

As far as i have been able to determine, it has to be LG. I tried my CISCO. Not recognized. I believe this is also true for Samsung and Sony. They are all listed at the same price. I am ordering mine from Buy.com. Seems to be the most reasonable.

That model is not specifically mentioned on LG's website: http://www.lg.com/us/tv-accessories/lg-AN-WL100W-wireless-media-kit On the back of my compatible TV, there is a plug to "power" and "control" the input selection of the wireless unit: https://discussions.apple.com/servlet/JiveServlet/showImage/2-18844821-131272/photo.JPG The back of your TV doesn't seem to have the wireless control plug: http://cnet4.cbsistatic.com/hub/i/2012/09/21/d79838d7-84cd-11e3-beb9-14feb5ca9861/9ee39c8475eec7c480642fea556b172c/LG_PA4500_series_35169635_35153888_ex01_540x386.jpg It probably would not be worth the try.

I had to send back. I hooked to an LG TV and the thing kept powering off by itself even after turning off the power saving features. I ended up buying an Onkyo LS3100 hooked it up using the fiber optic cable and it just works when I turn on/off and volume using the TV remote. It had LG already progrmed in I didn't even have fiddle with the remote.

This LG device will only work with a few specific LG TV older models. It will not work with other TVs. It gets it power from the specific LG TV. It is not a universal unit. Don't buy it unless you have the LG TV model it was designed to work with.

I have the LG wireless media kit, LG42LV4400 tv & LG soundbar. How do i connect these thru the media kit wirelessly? The manual says use a hdmi cable from tv to media box. I need assistance on hooking these up.

Yes, you have to spend $80 for a Samsung wireless adapter. They're real careful not to tell you that when you buy the thing.

They require wires that plug into a wireless box. When I ordered my system the wires weren't in the box. I contacted LG.com and they sent them to me. GREAT SYSTEM!

You need the ZeusGard Wifi adapter to use Zeusgard wirelessly. It does not work with a regular wi fi. You can directly access Zeusgard if you are on a wired LAN. The interface for this product is not very complex so there are not many bells and whistles.

yes, you need an hdmi cable to connect the adapter to and then the other end of the hdmi cable connects to the tv. order the hdmi cable from amazon. they are much less expensive than a store.

Ok this is how we used the cables. We had purchased a new TV (Sears), a sony blu ray w/built in WiFi (Amazon), and a 4 way HDMI switch w/wireless remote (Walmart) that were all connected to each other with the cables. Since we have a wireless router in the house for internet, we didn't have to do anything with the router or computer. This basically turns your TV into a big screen tablet. Hope this helps.

If you have wifi, I would assume that you already have access to an internet provider (such as cable, DSL, ..). Your wifi speed however has to be fast enough to stream video. LG actually recommends the TV set be connected via an ethernet cable rather than wifi.

Onkyo UWF-1 Wireless LAN Adapter by Onkyo. you need to add this from what I read. I connected mine by cable

I have a c5500 which requires the wireless lan adapter. All I seem to be able to find is the Samsung item. I searched the pdf manual and didn't see any indication of using another wireless adapter. Any feedback?

I'm really not sure. On the description for the wifi dongle your model isn't listed and everywhere I looked it said your TV should have come with a wifi dongle. Worse case scenario buy it and return it I suppose. I can't find anything about the particular wifi dongle for your TV though.

If you have a router and are already set-up with WiFi you do not need an adaptor to set-up the Smart TV. The TV does the work for you.
