Internet on Sony TV - how do I connect?

I want to connect my TV to the internet - to watch Netflix and such.  I've gone round and round and can't find the answer, which I'm sure is really simple.  How do I connect my HD Sony TV to be able to do this?  I don't have a DVR....can anyone help?

I will speak in General Terms since I'm not familiar with the Sony TV product.
If the TV is Internet capable then you can connect the TV to the Internet in two ways:
1.  On the back of the TV you will need to see if there is a port for an Ethernet/Internet Connection.  You would then have to connect a wire from the VZ provided Router into the back of the TV.
2.  If the wired option is not aviable and your TV is Internet Ready then you can see if the TV will accept a Wireless LAN USB Adapter.  Once you make this connection you will then need to configure the TV to speak to your wireless LAN router.
Do you know if your TV is internet Ready?  Which model TV do you have?  When did you purchase it?

    how do i connect to the internet with my ipad?

    Did you turn WiFi on in the Settings App? If WiFi is turned on, your iPad should be able to see any WiFi networks that you can connect to and you should be able to tap on one of those, enter a password if needed and then tap the join button.
    I get the feeling that you know this and the problem needs further explanation so ... Can you explain in more detail?

    Ethernet cable from your router, or configure wifi in Settings.

    LOL!!
    I am in Australia and the ISP... I think both the main ones would fit your description to a T.. big T in particular.
    Your router is really unsuitable.. if it is only wireless and no ethernet.. just buy an ethernet one.
    Do a search on ebay.. 3g router.
    But you can get the TC to join a wireless network.
    It is a non-standard setup that Apple will not support.. the option is hidden.
    If you are on Lion download the 5.6 utility. Go to the wireless set up page and hold down the option key whilst selecting wireless mode.. a new option, join will appear. You can then put in the ssid and passkey of the 3g router.
    But please note the end result of this setup..
    very slow speed. The TC is now a second wireless hop from your clients.. this will halve the speed.
    In this mode the ethernet are deactived.. for reasons only Apple know, they decided you should not use ethernet when doing this.

  • How do I connect my Centro to the Internet via bluetooth over PC's Internet? Where is Centro's PPP Connection Type? How do I setup Login Script for bluetooth connection?

    I am trying to set up bluetooth on the Centro to connect to the internet via my PC's internet.
    HotSync over bluetooth works successfully.
    Computer specs: Toshiba P205-S6277; Bluetooth Stack v5.10.04 (currently using); Bluetooth Monitor v3.01 (to use Vista's built-in bluetooth)
    I think I have narrowed my problem down to 3 things.
    (1) Finding Network Access properties (to allow connected devices to access the internet)
    (2) Finding Centro's Network Connection Type: PPP
    (3) Finding the correct Login Script to use
    for (1) I think I've looked everywhere; found nothing on Network Access. 
    Checked control panel: only Bluetooth Local COM
    Right-clicked bluetooth icon > Settings: File transfer, PAN Networking, PAN DHCP server, AV controls. Other bluetooth settings are for file transfer or object push. I don't see anything like this.
    I'm stumped on (2). It seems as if palm removed this option under Centro's Advanced network settings .
    Nearly all the forums that I read says to choose Connection Type: PPP.
    (3) Found 2 scripts that seemed would work. I don't know how it exactly works but it sounds workable.
    First script:
    Send: CLIENT
    Send: CLIENT
    Wait for: CLIENTSERVER
    End:
    Script 1 Connect Log:
    =======================================
    Connect Log
    S: client
    S: client
    R:
    Err: 0x121F   <<<netErrUserCancel b/c I canceled it. 
    Not connected
    ========================================
    I canceled it because the process would stay on "Signing In" then it automatically "Canceled" itself.
    Second script:
    Send CR:
    Delay: 1
    Send: CLIENT
    Wait For: CLIENTSERVER
    End
    **UPDATE** I found on this forum (Reply # 3689) that the script is needed only if you are using Palm OS 4 or under. Centro uses Palm OS 5.49121. Can anyone support this?
    Even without the script it has problems "Signing In".
    I'm currently reading this site and trying out its decribed methods. I will update this thread when I get the results.
    I'm using the Centro. And If anyone's been able to successfully connect to the internet on the Centro via a bluetooth connection to the PC WITHOUT 3rd party applications, please share.  If not, please share any ideas.
    Thanks!
    -Eric

    I've been going at this for days, and have probably exhausted all the proposed solutions on the first 3 pages of various google searches. I'm getting the feeling that Vista users are pretty much SOL for the time being.
    For the record, I just tried out a few of the solutions (mRouter & SoftickPPP) on XP and they work perfectly.

    Hey wrend123,
    You can use AirPlay Mirroring to mirror exactly what’s on your iPad to your HDTV via Apple TV. You can read more about that option here:

    Well, I have connected my mbpr directly to a Sony Bravia using an hdmi cable, then set the tv to use the corresponding input port, and it works just fine. Have also connected via airplay -> appletv -> tv (with the last connection via an hdmi cable), which also works fine.

  • Hi, I just got an Apple Thunderbolt Display. How can I connect it to my sony vaio pc? Thanks

    Hi, I just got an Apple Thunderbolt Display. How can I connect it to my sony vaio pc? At Apple Store they gave me a Mini Display Port to VGA Adapter, but monitor doesnt display any image. Thanks for your help!

    no, your computer needs to have thunderbolt technology. does it?
    if not, no adapter can make a thunderbolt display work on a non-thunderbolt computer.
    someone was likely confused since miniDP will FIT into a TB socket but is only compatible one way, ie a mDP display can work on a TB machine, but a TB display cannot work on a mDP machine

  • For a LAN network in my office, all laptops are Windows based and the internet is through LAN and other computer get connected with adhoc without the router. My Apple computer nor my iPhone 5 get connected. How do I connect to this Internet?

    In the office, All my colleges use Windows laptops. The Internet connection is out of LAN wire installed in one of the computers. Others use Internet by creating adhoc connection. However none of the apple products are being able to connect to this connection.How can i connect my MacBook Pro or iPhone 5 to this Internet network?

    Just how is the one computer connecting to the internet? What type of connection does the office have, DSL, Cable or is it a Data connection through a Cell phone provider.
    I doubt all other computer are doing Ad-Hoc but are probably Sharing the Internet connection with Internet Connection Sharing from that one Windows base PC.
    All you khave to do is Connect to that same WiFi SSID name and have the correct password for it.

  • How do I connect DVI to Scart (or S-serial) on my Sony WEGA?

    Does anyone know how I can connect my MacBook Pro (with a DVI socket) to my Sony WEGA TV. The TV has both Scart and S-serial video (plus the red and white audio sockets).
    Many thanks,
    Richard

    If it's an older Mac with DVI Output then you need something like:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9267G/A?fnode=MTY1NDA3Ng&mco=MTAyNjUwNA
    If it's a newer Mac with the mini port you're going to need two adapters such as:
    mini displayport to VGA http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB572Z/A?mco=NDY5OTAzNQ
    then VGA to S-Video http://www.amazon.com/TV-Out-VGA-S-Video-RCA-Adapter/dp/B000S675JU

    Thanks for replying. The plan you have it would be an additional charge to add the hotspot feature. It's not free with the Nationwide plan. You would need to add the feature online at www.verizonwireless.com/myverizon

  • How do I connect TC to a new ethernet and share a new ethernet DSL with a new PC and use with my macbook Pro? I tried and get no internet on the PC or Macbook Pro?

    how do I connect TC to a new ethernet and share a new ethernet DSL with a new PC and use with my macbook Pro? I tried and get no internet on the PC or Macbook Pro?

    Ok.
    I am connected to wi-fi through TC connected to a specific router and is working perfectly and saving data through TM without any issues.
    The TC version is 7.6.1 and am using OS 10.7.3
    The router mode is on Bridge mode and router is connected to TC through USB cable, I suppose for internet access. My Mac is on wi-fi through TC
    I have another location, much further, which recently have been installed with wi-fi through router that has WPA accessibiulity with password, 100% different than the current one.
    Since, I will be most of my time in this new location, I wish to move my TC to this new location, and configure it in similar fashion like what I am having right now.
    Naturally, I do not wish to lose any saved data on the TC.
    Hope I managed to provide enought info.
    Thanks in advance
