I have a Mitsubishi big screen TV and the USB dongle that came with it it very erratic at best... If I use this in pace of it, could it connect to Wif

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.

Nope it will not. I purchased this dongle with similar needs, I was trying to connect my media server to my home wi-fi. After spending several unsuccessful hours, I called Cisco, who informed me that the dongle is not plug and play and hence will work only on a laptop or a PC. It comes with the drivers on a CD and the drivers have to be loaded onto the hardware you are trying to connect. Unless you have some way of loading the drivers onto your television (which I doubt) it will not work.

I'm going to have to go with a safe answer and say no. I'm not 100% sure that I am correct on this, but I don't think it will work. You will probably have to use Samsung's own adapter that they have. It is called a LinkStick. Most usb wireless adapters are going to require a driver to make it work, and you don't have a way to do that with your tv. I would do a search for Linkstick in the Amazon search and look at the ones that come up. If you look at the reviews for them there have been a lot of people posting what models each one seems to work with.

I use this router to connect my Wii and DVD player. Both of those have WiFi capability. Therefore, I would surmise that it would work similarly with a PC or other WiFi enabled device.

The dongle with a usb cable + antenna to capture the signal from your wifi router, again if wifi router is not closed from antenna, the device may not capture signal.

I wouldn't buy this again, I was never able to get the wifi function to work properly, thus I just use it now like a flash drive and plug it in the usb.

Hello, I have the Mitsubishi WD-92840 92-Inch and this product (Mitsubishi AWNU231 IEEE 802.11n USB Wi-Fi Adapter) is suppose to work with Mitsubishi televisions however I was unable to get it to work for mine. The device was unable to find my wireless router / network therefore I was not able to get the device to work. Am not sure if I couldn't get the device to work because I wasn't computer literate enough to figure it out nevertheless I tried every troubleshooting technique I knew to get device up and running and unable to do so. It is my understanding this device has been discontinued by the manufacturer, hope this helps...

I never got it to work. Period. It is useless. It's one of those prime examples of "you get what you pay for". I say get a really good one with a dongle and a laser pointer. It'll be worth your sanity.

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.

Yes you need the Samsung dongle (Lan Stick). Other dongles won't work. You need it to get a wireless reception. As for configuring, I started with a Linksys and had problems. In the forums on Cnet, they recommended using a D-Link, which was easier for me to configure.

I have used this unit in client mode before but only to make a PC wifi capable. The included instruction indicates that it can be used in this mode with smart TV's, media devices and game consoles to make them wifi capable but I have not tried it. You will need to configure the unit to client mode on a PC before you can connect it to the device.

Hi there, unfortunately it appears that most TVs don't recognize USB adapters unless the manual says that it does. I actually tried it on my Samsung TV and it didn't recognize the dongle at all. The USB port on your TV is most likely only to allow you to access USB storage (ie. a flash drive). This particular dongle needs Windows 8/7/Vista to support it so that your device can download the proper drivers that it needs and configure the right bluetooth profile so that you are able to pair devices. You may want to consider looking into wireless TV headphones instead. Hope that helps.

Yes, but you have to buy Samsung's expensive USB wireless adapter, it will not recognize a regular USB wireless adapter, otherwise it works fine and I have it networked to all of my other and Newer smart TVs. TV is limited with AllShare, most of my computer folders that I share on the network exceed the specs. Therefore, I use my Netgear Centria and Windows to access shared media from that TV. Picture is awesome, best one in the house for viewing.

regular usb wifi dongle will not work as it requires drives. Only LG dongle works. it is cheaper to buy it from eBay.

I'm using mine on a PC, and although the product description now says "SamSung WIS12ABGNX" (I don't recall if it did when I bought it), there may be more to using it on a TV mere hardware compatibility. There can be driver issues. A quick google finds this site talking about using non-samsung adapters on samsung tvs. http://wiki.samygo.tv/index.php5/Using_NoN-Samsung_USB_WiFi_dongles_with_TV So it's probably a crap shoot on whether its plug-and-play. Do you feel lucky?

Yes, that is what it is for. However, you have to download the driver from a computer with internet connectivity FIRST for it to work. You can find the driver on Netgears website. Download the driver onto a SD card or USB stick. The simply install it on the computer you need wifi on, then hook up the netgear unit. Driver can be found here. http://support.netgear.com/product/WNA3100. Its easy breezy.
