Yes you need internet for this to work, either wireline or wireless, if you going wireless the modem needs to be near to LG box or buy a booster. Personally I wouldn't buy it, I have only used it about twice, I have condemned it, signal gives trouble, power button, remote, only reason I didn't return it is because it will cost me more to ship it back. Save money and by either smart TV or google chrome cast. I bought an LG smart TV which I love except it didn't come with netflix, just my 2 cents

If you must buy it, I think there is a later or more high end model.....look for it!

It depends what you want to do. If you want to watch movies or listen to music from a flash drive or portable hard drive you can do that. Anything else requires an internet connection.

You must have Internet. It can then be attached by wire or used wirelessly.

It would connect your tv to wifi, though your tv might not have the software two interact with the network. Check and see if your tv software can be upgraded to surf the internet, if not your wasting your time and money.

No, you cannot hook it up to your TV with just wireless. You still need the HDMI cable. The wi-fi is for netflix and other offered services.

The TV itself cannot connect to the internet. You need the Panasonic Wifi adapter. I didn't buy it. I connect via PS3 and my netbook and then HDMI to the TV.Panasonic DY-WL10 Wireless LAN Adapter for select Panasonic Viera HDTVs and Blu-ray Disc Players

You won't need "internet" but you'll need the base station and a wireless network. Your phone or the remote you can but will connect to it locally using your wireless network.

This will only work on the Dish Network so only TV no internet, you would have to get a different dish strictly for internet.

Mine connected automatically to our WiFi (I had to give the TV the wireless password, of course), although I was pretty sure I'd have to buy an attachment for that. Also can view pics and vids from my phone (Samsung Galaxy 3) on the TV, wirelessly, but that may depend on the phone you have.

No, it does not come with it. It also needs the LG dongle in order for the smart tv / wifi to work. It does work without it though.

if you inquiring if it is a "smart tv" (with built-in internet connectivity), no, it is not what I do is set up my apps such as Netflix, Vudu, Amazon Instant Video, et al on my blu ray player (which does have Wi-Fi)

You can't browse the internet on this tv. The wifi for the tv is used for apps pre-installed on the tv like Netflix, Amazon Prime video, Flickr, etc.

If I remember correctly you need to use the Ethernet port on the back of the TV and connect to your router directly. Not many people have this close to their TV though.... then sign up for amazon. The few movies I watched were decent. If it was wireless it would be easier.....

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

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.

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.

This is not an internet connected tv. The only way to access Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu+, ect. Are though devices like videogame consoles, apple tv, that primecast thing.

You must have a cable box to use this tv. A router would not work either . This is a transmit and receive System. It must have a video input for the transmitter.
