Hi, I just bought this TV and I have a Netflix account. I'm trying to stream Netflix on my TV but I can't hear audio. I bought an HDMI cable and connected it to my Macbook Pro. This TV functions nicely as a giant monitor, but I want to be able to watch movies with the audio coming out of the TV. Does anybody know how to do this? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! I was trying to find a Netflix ready icon on the box -- it doesn't have one. I'm assuming I can't?

Oh, sorry :) I don't know specifics about the apple adapter, but it seems like sometimes you have to go to the settings and actively select audio out from your speaker menu on the mac. I have an HP with a dock so it is a little more confusing, but I have heard of people needing to go to the audio menu and toggling it on. Get a cheap one from amazon and try mesing ith the settings. If you are still under warranty, it might also help to talk to a genius. They might have some ideas that don't involve the iTV. I think straming from your mac would be faster.

Thanks Albert and A. Macharia. I'm a gal BTW... : ) I was able to use my HDTV as a monitor, but nothing more really. I bought the cable that you mentioned (A.) and I could watch Netflix, but the audio was still coming out of my laptop which wasn't fun. I ended up returning the cable to the Apple store and bought an Apple TV, but now downloading anything on that thing takes forever. Grrrrr...... Maybe it's time to bump up my wireless connection. IDK...

Problem I had with this is I was going from my DVI port on the Mac to HDMI using an adapter cable, but the DVI port doesn't carry audio, only video. My work around was then wiring an audio cable from the headphone jack of the computer to my surround system. (In my case I used a 3.5mm to RCA cable). Gets messy with extra wires but it does the trick for now.

You cannot.You will need to add a Netflix capable device [Xbox360, BlueRay DVD player--i.e. from LG BD 590 or 570, etc]. You can wireless stream to the device and have the device cabled to the TV via one of the 3 HDMI ports. Works great [I use the LG BD590, but the 570 has the same capability:Netflix, Vudu, etc]. There are cheaper alternatives.

The TV comes Wi-Fi ready. It has an internal WiFi connection. So as long as you have a wireless router the TV will connect with little issue.

It should be able to connect to your wireless internet.I got me Vizio Smart Tv and it has internet functionality too.If you had issues,read up on the Trouble Shooting section of the TV Manualand if there is none then either go into Settings and find Internet Connection or call the Panasonic Company.I hope that this does solve your problems,I really do hope that it does help you.

Ive had some issues with connecting this model to the internet, and i think other people have as well, "I'm not exactly sure if it even is WIFI capable." It only has a network cable port in the back. though i believe i did get the network cable to work. but when i downloaded Netflix, and went to go use Netflix it didn't work, so i just use my Ps3, Xbox, or blue-ray player, to stream stuff. sorry i cant answer your question, but i figured i would post you my the problems i have had. good luck.

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 can use WiFi, but my device broke pretty quick and I didn't like it when it worked. Pretty buggy. I switch to latest Google TV box from Sony, much better, IMHO.

If you are asking if this TV can connect to Amazon Prime streaming video, then the answer is "no". This TV has absolutely no Internet connectivity capabilities at all. It's just a plain old TV, although it's a decent one for the price.

Yes the WI FI module comes with the TV when purchased new. It also can be connected to the internet with LAN cable.

This tv has a variety of apps. You cannot browse the internet the way you can on a computer or smartphone, but there is a YouTube app, as well as many others. I believe you can browse the Vizio App Store (the apps are free) on their website.

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.

no. This television does not have built-in WiFi. You have to connect your modem (DSL or Cable) to a Wireless Router. This router will create a wireless network. You would then create user name and password to make this network secure (instructions usually come with the router). Note: Some modems come with built-in wireless routers.

Yes, the LN5700 TVs do have built in WiFi. It has an easy menu to connect in into your home WiFi.

This TV doesn't come with internet. Your best bet is a Roku or hooking up a gaming console that has the Netflix app.

You can connect to the Internet if you have a wireless router. Go to settings and follow prompts. You'll need to enter your IP address. Thus it should stream movies. I don't use it. I can stream movies on my Smart TV, so I just use the BD-F5100 for playing Blue Ray DVDs.
