| 1317955 | 2012-12-20 03:31:00 | Back again. I bought my computer new 7 years ago and it came with a Benq FP71V+ monitor. It had DVI-D (white) and a D-Sub (blue). I connected both from PC to monitor, was I supposed to only connect one of them? Do I remove one, buy a longer one and use that to connect PC to TV. | bellbird (6169) | ||

At current age, both are coming together from their particular instructions, challenging and assist at the same time to create strange interactive communications commodities. | Bart 05 (16970) | ||

Yes, you only need one video cable from the PC to the monitor. | pcuser42 (130) | ||
| 1317958 | 2012-12-21 20:32:00 | Thanks pcuser, and thanks everyone for your input. My not understanding that VGA and D-Sub are the same thing and that I had connected both the D-sub and DVI cables from PC to monitor has confused things somewhat. I should be good to go now. | bellbird (6169) | ||

| 1317960 | 2012-12-21 21:29:00 | This has been an excellent question. But can you do it wirelessly, over a distance of say 10 metres? What equipment is needed? | Richard (739) | ||

Bro bought one of the DSE devices but returned it. It is a straight line 'line of sight', when you factor in walls and closed doors, corners it doesn't work. Also pay attention to your cordless phone due to interference with the frequency. He got it to work maybe 5m away to the dining room (open plan). It might be better to get a Wifi device that turns the TV into surfing the net if that is available or simply use a laptop connected to the TV. The laptop can access the Wifi router. |
