Hi all
I wonder if anyone can throw some light on this question?
We have a Panasonic Viera 42inch plasma that has been great, I already have a Fire Stick attached but was idly checking the setup info and realised that it has an Ethernet port. However, I don't have ethernet in that room and at the moment very limited mains power points free.
So, the question ~ is there a specific dongle or suitable unit that will convert Ethernet to WiFi? I have looked and have yet to reveal immediately suitable options the ethernet port AFAIK is max 100Mbps speed. NB so far most/all are aimed at connection to computers and require that level of interfacing with the dongle setup....the TV ethernet setup does allow for manual network connection as well automatic.
I would appreciate any pointers and/or user experiences of such adaptor to look at The reason I wish to explore that sort of connection is that there seem to be a number FreeView data channels that might expand the choices of watching.
TIA
PS I would prefer not throw too much money at the project ~ £15 to £25, if possible?
