1287459 2012-07-10 05:48:00 I have a TV that will play Internet, but no telephone connection handy to TV set.

Are there any wireless solutions?:badpc:

Thanks lads.

1287460 2012-07-10 06:09:00 It may have ethernet not a phone connection. Go to the site and see if it uses / supports wireless. If it does, you cant use any wireless adapter. It'll be the same brand as the TV. And probably expensive Speedy Gonzales (78)

1287462 2012-07-10 09:20:00 I used to be a sceptic about YouTube until I got a TV that could access it. Then I discovered that YouTube is excellent for classical music. Our Sony EX700 has a good YouTube interface (much better than WD TV HD) and allows adding/deleting to Playlists and Favourites, View Similar Videos, etc. I now get close to my 10 GB monthly allowance

We use a Netcomm NP121 "wireless bridge" to connect to our home network. This is just 2 small units that connect to each other wirelessly (it's billed as a cable replacement). One of the units connects via ethernet cable to the router. The other end has 4 ethernet ports - one goes to the TV, one to the WD TV HD media player, the third to a video capture device which has FTP back to my PC
