Most likely you will have to buy Sony's own Wifi Adapter:Sony USB Wi-Fi AdapterAt least that is true for Sony BDP-BX37 1080p Upscaling Blu-ray Disc DVD Player w/HDMI, LAN & USB from what all the reviews are saying.Sorry for the bad news. Hope you have a happy New Year!

It has WiDi.. It doesn't work very well with my Lenevo ideapad. My Laptop doesn't recognize the TV. After several attempts when it does and connects, it works fine. However, the quality is not as good as Apple's Airplay.

What you're looking for is DLNA networking. I don't see anything in this model's description about it, but the LG BD570 (next model up) states that it does it. Hope this helps.

I just received mine the other day, it's a self contained unit the router model number and password pop up on your tv when it's plugged in, use these once you've downloaded the EZcast app to gain access, the dongle creates a wifi network that links to your computer and mobile device. The firmware in the dongle is updatable and that runs the programming. you also need a semi smart phone to interact with it (I have a 4G LTE, it's not that smart but the app works if ignore the system update warnings) it works with streaming videos, not seamlessly, but watchable and transmits the sound well. My attempts at sharing the screen while playing games on steam have failed so far. While I'm give advise I might as well add that getting a 'L' HDMI extender plug might be worth it, the media beam dongle sticks horizontally out of the back of the flat screen, reducing the screens ability to be flat. (protrudes an extra 10 cm now) hope that helps

I would say that the answer is no. The Nyrius transmitter and receiver are designed to work with each other. If you have built-in WiDi, you do not need any dongle. But . . .you will still need to purchase a receiver that works with WiDi.Here is a link that will give you some basic information.http://www.pcworld.com/article/2044749/its-a-widi-shootout-actiontecs-screenbeam-pro-vs-netgears-push2tv.htmlThe Nyrius can be a little fickle during the setup but once I got it dialed in, I was (and am) extremely satisfied with its function and display.

No, it will not work on your unit as it's not listed on the compatible devices. Please follow on this link for full specification of ASUS Miracast Dongle http://www.asus.com/Tablet_Mobile_Accessories/ASUS_Miracast_Dongle/specifications/.

Mine did ****NOT**** come with the dongle in the packaging, so I have a useless remote. I think it's a gamble as to if you get the dongle or not, so beware.

@Gary, yes, the WDTV Live works with the AirLink USB dongle I listed above. No hacking, no nothin'. Just plug it in. I am extremely pleased with the results. I've been streaming hi-def 720 and 1080p with it.@Philip, the Live is nearly identical to the original WDTV gen 1 in design, so yes, it still has 2 USB ports for local hard drives. Under the hood is where it's different. I'm very happy about it being wireless-capable and DTS downmixing, because it now lets me put the device anywhere in the house.

With a Dongle work perfectly. I'll ask a friend that works for this receiver Dongle.

According to the manufacturer's website, you need a "WiFi Qumi Dongle" to use that feature. I have not located such a thing as yet. It is not listed as a purchasable accessory on that site.

We have a Sony Sony KDL-52XBR9 that we are trying to run wireless for computer and internet connection.We want to wirelessly connect a laptop to the TV so we can use the Sony's screen as the large display.We have a Cisco Linksys-N Broadband router, model WRT-160N V3.We have tried (2) Sony usb dongles, UWA-BR100. The TV replies with, "... this wireless usb device is not compatible with this tv..."Is there a way to connect this TV wirelessly to our router? If yes, please provide details.Thanks - BAW

The one thing I know for sure, you need Android OS 4.2.2... make sure the Android OS you have installed has support for "MiraCast" or it wont work even if it is physically connectable.

Common problem. I solved the "USELESS MOUSE" by attaching the wifi dongle to to the extention cord it came with and made sure it was visible. There are other 2.4ghz controls that maybe interfering too. Make sure no other wireless apparatus is being used around it. this does not have a bluetooth capability. This is the downside.

What OS does it have? The laptop has to either support WiDi or Miracast. Windows 8.1 supports Miracast: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/project-wireless-screen-miracast

Dlink says it should work. It will definitely fit in the USB port and replace the dongle the sony came with. dlink says it should be comparable with TV and the like because it conforms to IEEE standards. Here is a link with more info http://www.dlink.com/us/en/home-solutions/connect/adapters/dwa-182-wireless-ac1200-dual-band-usb-adapter

It comes with a USB lead but no wall charger. You can use any generic USB wall charger E.G. for a phone or tablet. It supports Windows 8.1 from a laptop (miracast is built in to 8.1) and is really simple to link. If WIDI does 'mirroring' then it will work if the OS supports the function.
