WRT160NL & Samsung Seies 7 TV wireless connection

Hi All,
I am a newbie so please forgive any basic errors I make!
I recently purchased a Samsung Series 7 TV and dongle with the intention of streaming pictures and videos to it wirelessley via my WRT160NL. No success so far!
I have reserved IP address 192.168.1.149 for the TV via DCHP reservation.
I have manually entered this along with DNS server, subnet mask and gateway addresses into my TV settings. When I attempt to connect to my network the TV dongle attempts to ping the gateway with no success.
Do I need to forward some ports? And if so which are they and how do I do this please?
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks

Are you getting any error message..?
Turn-off the DHCP Reservation and then,try to connect..The SAMSUNG Wireless LAN adaptor is required to enable wireless networking functionality on your SAMSUNG TV. The wireless networking functions will not work with generic wireless LAN adaptors.Also make sure that you are typing the correct network key...If you are using WEP then,use Key1 as the network key.
Also on the router uncheck Filter Anonymous Internet Requests and check..

    Have tried to hardwire and wirelessly connect my samsung tv to my home hub 3.0. I have tried to use wps to connect, to set up with auto settings and to set up manually.

  • Asus TF700, Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and 3G/4G wireless connectivity

    Hello - the Asus TF700 does not have 3G/4G wireless connectivity.  The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 does.  How big of factor should this be in deciding between these two tablets?
    Thanks
    s

    It boils down to if you want a data plan or not.
    Most phones have a wifi data sharing app or at worst tethering. Meaning if you have a phone with a data plan always on you (as most do) then you wouldn't "need" 3G/4G. But some like it just for convenience.
    Me, I have no data plan on my iPhone or tablets. But I also spend 80%+ of my days at one of my jobs (both have wifi) or at home (also wifi). Also I live in the city and virtually every fast food place has wifi now, so if I need to look something up I just have to pull over for 5 minutes at the closest resteraunt. Just can't spend the extra $60+ a month on a data plan when you can get a gophone plan with unlimited text/calls for $25.

  • Often lose wireless connection when using HDTV as monitor

    I have an unusual wireless networking problem when using my Samsung HDTV in my living room as a monitor for my MacBook (when watching Internet TV shows, for example). Frequently when I switch URLs, networking freezes, even though the connection appears strong, with the Airport symbol at the top of my screen showing all bars. To re-establish the wireless connection, I have to go through the process of re-joining my network through the “Join Other Network" option. The signal holds as long as I don’t try to change it, as in selecting another URL.
    I connect to my HDTV via HDMI cable, using a mini-DVI to HDMI adapter from my Macbook’s video-out port. The audio connection is a mini-plug from the Mac’s headphone out jack to stereo RCA plugs associated with the TV’s HDMI port.
    The wireless connection is through a Lynksys Wireless-G 2.4 Ghz, 54 Mpbs Broadband router.
    I’d appreciate any solutions the Apple user community has to offer.

    I'd say this has nothing to do with your display. The problem will likely lie in either your router settings, network settings or a simple signal strength issue. Try first changing the broadcast channel on your router, and make sure all settings are correct for your desired network.

  • Mac wireless connectivity with DLNA-equipped Full Hi-Definition TVs

    Dear Friends at Apple,
    I have been an avid Apple Macintosh user/advocate since 1985.
    Can anyone help me I establish what is Apple proposing to do with regard to DLNA (Digital Living Network compatibility with our Intel Mac OS X 10.x.x computers?
    Background from <dlna.org> website ..
    "About DLNA:
    The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a global collaboration of 245 of your most trusted brands, all working together to help you create the home entertainment environment you’ve always imagined."
    So DLNA Wireless Connectivity is being adopted now by the majority of leading Full High Definition LED-LCD and Plasma TV manufacturers.
    However, I am unable to locate any information that would suggest that Apple is taking any steps to ensure wireless connectivity between my Intel MacBook Pros, Airport Extreme router and Samsung Series 9 DLNA-equipped large screen LCD-LED TVs.
    DLNA as a protocol has been established since 2003. In that time, these international corporations have joined the DLNA consortium:
    http://www.dlna.org/about_us/roster/
    Where is Apple?
    Surely, given the Microsoft domination of the DLNA consortium, Apple faces complete exclusion from the wireless Loungeroom Entertainment DLNA environment.
    As with "Rosetta", a Mac Airport Extreme/DLNA tranlation capability should be capable of development, in order to protect Apple users who do NOT wish to ever load MS Windows on our Macs. (I happen to be one of these Apple purists!)
    I would be extremely grateful if anyone could advise me on:
    1. Apple's plans for connecting to DLNA-equipped TVs and PVRs
    2. The likely timing for availability of the Apple solution?
    Thank you in advance,
    Rob Moffatt
    <edited by host>

    This isn't the place to ask a technical question. You should take that up in the forum appropriate for your model of Mac.
    But answering quickly, there are DLNA-compatible media server software packages available for Mac. Whether any of those would be what you are looking for I don't know. You can look here for a list, or search the web for something like "DLNA Mac".
    Whether Apple has any plans for their own software no one here can or will say.

  • Samsung CLX-3305W wireless setup

    I can't fathom why they make this so difficult, but there are other accounts online documenting similar problems to what I'm having, yet none with a resolution that works for me.
    - Drivers that came on the CD provided are installed
    - A Wireless Utility I found in Samsung's Support documents is installed
    - I can print and scan with USB attached
    - I was successful in getting the printer name ("Portthru") recognized in Airport under Devices, but it still won't print wirelessly
    There is a key point that always comes up in Samsung Support as well as in the other cases of people having trouble where you must log-in to Samsung's online utility called SyncThru by entering the printer's IP address into the URL line of your browser so that you can change the printer's IP to a Static one rather than DHCP. Not my router's, the printer's IP.
    This is the crux of my problem, I think. I can not log-in to SyncThru. The IP address just brings up a 'page cannot be found' type message.
    Also, at one point in the wireless setup assistant there is a button to click "Set IP Address" (for the printer), but it opens a webpage for me where I get the message "No JAVA 2 SDK Standard Edition v 1.4.2 Support for APPLET!!!"
    I don't know what to do. In fact, I'm annoyed it's this complicated so at them moment I have uninstalled everything and boxed up the printer.
    Please help, I'd actually like to get it working.

    You might want to check with Samsung support to verify if your model will work at the USB port of the AirPort Extreme.  If it does, then you will be able to print from your computer using the wireless connection.
    There is a good chance that the printer will work because it does appear on Apple's list of compatible models:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#HP
    Important Note......If your printer is an All-in-One type device, only the print function will work when the printer is connected to the AriPort Extreme.  Copy, Scan, Maintenance, etc will not be supported.  You will need to connect the All-in-One directly to your computer for those features to be available.
    If you are asking about printing from an iPad, even if your printer is supported, you will likely not be able to print from the iPad unless you install an App like Print Central on the iPad.

  • Macbook Pro Wireless Connection Problems

    I bought my 13 inch macbook pro 1 week ago and I've had wireless connection problems from day 2 (I think after the updates).
    Problems include:
    - Safari cannot connect to the internet for 5~10 minutes after I turn it on, whether it be from sleep mode or completely off or restart (the fastest connection I got after turning it on was about 40 seconds)
    - Loading takes ridiculously long and eventually Safari cannot find the server
    - Airport signal (on the top right hand corner) is always full when it is not working
    - Sometimes internet works but it is ridiculously slow
    However, when the wireless connection stabilizes, Airport Signal is 2~3 bars full and internet works SOOO well and I love it so much when it does. But the problem is that it stabilizes like 30 minutes to never after I turn it on and it makes me so mad I want to explode this piece of crap in the microwave.
    So I've called apple support, and they made me try four things:
    1. Reset modem, router, and computer
    2. Delete caches, reset Safari
    3. Putting Airport first on the Service Order and resetting DHCP Lease
    4. Connecting with Ethernet Cable then resetting the computer
    None of these worked, and I'm suspecting that the cause of the problem is the hardware (not the aluminum body that's just bs) because my router and modem are working fine (my other samsung laptop is working perfectly). I don't think the problem lies in my network settings either because I did exactly what the Apple technicians told me to do. So after Appleguy made me try all 4 of those diagnostics, he told me to contact my router company NETGEAR because he thinks nothing is wrong with the mac hardware, so I did. The NETGEAR lady told me if one laptop is working and another isn't, there is nothing wrong with the router. So if nothing is wrong with my hardware, software, router, modem, ISP... Why do I have wireless issues????!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
    I'm going to return this <edited by host> or get another one with my warranty

    Same thing here.
    I've got a Macbook Pro 15" bought 6 weeks ago, airport express bought about a year ago. All updated with latest software/firmware, etc. Problems include:
    -Sometimes when i pull down the network list, my network isn't even there, yet i'm still connected to it. My airport is appx 10 feet away in an open area.
    -usually after opening safari or firefox for the first time upon sleep, restart, or just opening the program after i had quit it, it is miserably slow. it takes about 2 minutes for pages like msn.com to load. finally when they do, its faster than you can imagine. that lasts for about a minute. then its slow again.
    -when logged into ichat and i send messages, i would sometimes get a "connection timeout" message. my buddy would end up getting the message about 5 minutes later.
    My iphone and dell laptop work fine. i haven't tried running parallels, but if bootcamp works, so should prlls.
    I've reset the modem about 20 times. i've reset the airport about 20 times. i even re-installed my OS on the mac and nothing has done it.
    Weird thing is that i've had my mac for 6 weeks, and this problem surfaced only 3 days ago.
    Clearly its not an issue of any of our ISP's. Due to the fact that this only started for me 3 dyas ago, i'm hopeful that its only a software problem and not something else. Hopefully apple will a) ADMIT THEY HAVE A PROBLEM HERE and b) FIX IT.

  • Using External monitor with DVI kills wireless connectivity

    I recently purchased a BenQ G2400WD 24" 1920x1200 monitor, for use with my May 2007 GMA 950 2.0Ghz. Macbook.
    Upon receiving the monitor, I immediately plugged it in to my Macbook, using the Mini-DV to VGA adaptor I already had, for use with projectors. The monitor was good, but a bit blurry and not too sharp, due to the analog signal. So I ordered a Mini-DVI to DVI adaptor. When it arrived, the improved picture quality was immediately apparent.
    However, as time went on, I noticed my wireless connectivity was getting terrible. Extremely slow Safari page load times, and upon going to Terminal and pinging my router, I would often get response times of 21000 milliseconds, or worse! I did a lot of research, on router firmware, on wireless connectivity, etc., but to no prevail. Then, on a whim, while continually pinging my router, I removed the DVI adaptor from my monitor. The ping instantly dropped from tens of full seconds to just a stable 0.4 milliseconds! Using my VGA connection resulted in no worse wireless connectivity than without it, but upon plugging in DVI and stressing the connection a bit (i.e. downloading a large file), the connection went bonkers. The pings also immediately jump from 0.4 milliseconds to a range of 1-4 milliseconds, regardless of any "stressing".
    I have done numerous research, including searching both here and on other discussion forums. It appears this problem with DVI connection is fairly common, but with no resolution so far. Any help would be great!
    A few important notes:
    -Both ends of both my VGA cable and my DVI cable are shielded.
    -I have tried numerous channel changes of my router, to no prevail.
    -While using DVI, EVERYTHING works well except the wireless. So the monitor isn't too demanding for my computer.
    And I hope my thorough post didn't scare you away!

    I have this same issue with the dvi and wireless disconnect. I am using a samsung 214T. I am glad to know i am not the only one seeing this, because it is kind of one of those things that is hard to believe. Anyway, I am also curious what kind of routers people have who are experiencing this issue. I am using a wrt54GL with tomato firmware.
    Also, In addition to the disconnect, my picture quality on my monitor gradually degrades over time...starting with what looks like snow flecks. After waking from screen saver, sometimes it is full static. Turning off and turning back on the monitor clears the static away.
    I can use another samsung 19in monitor with dvi without any problems.

  • Restablish wireless connection to tablet

    Hello
    I use a Linksys wireless router WRT54G@ v1.5 with my laptop which operates on WinVista.  My wireless connection is working fine on my PC. but since we experienced a power failure I lost my connection to Samsung galaxy tablet. Have tried to troubleshoot through the Linksys website and on the tablet as well. to no avail..please advise...many thanks
    avz

    You should be able to find the option in enabling the wireless security on the router's user interface. See the picture below. Do not forget to save the settings after. Once you are able to set that one properly, you should be able to get your laptop connected to the internet. If you are using the same SSID and wireless password, your laptop should suppose to connect automatically not
    you are using a new SSID and or password that you need to connect manually to the wireless network.

  • Wirelessly Connected to Home Hub 3, Cannot Get Int...

    Hello,
    BT Infinity installed on 6th June Home Hub 3 (type B).  Previously on BT Broadband.
    One laptop computer connects to the hub but will not connect to the Internet wirelessly (connects wired).  Running Windows 7.  Cannot surf, Skype.
    Have been on to tech support (for hours!) they tried all the usual (change channel, update drivers, took control of laptop remotely, everything possible done).
    Still not working, although did get a very brief sporadic connection.
    Computer in question (Samsung Netbook, "n" connection) worked perfectly on old BT Broadband, works out of the house on wifi connections.
    Has anyone had this problem?  Are there any solutions?
    Thanks.

    Hi guys you most likely have this solved already but just incase I have recently encountered the same problem with my 'netbook'
    I have tried everything from installing new drivers to creating a 'disable' registry key for IPV6 .. The way I solved this and hope it works for you was...
    Go to you your sharing point and open wireless network connection.
    Click properties
    In the dialogue box uncheck 'internet protocol version 6 (tcp/ipv6)
    Then above it click 'configure'
    Another dialogue box will open informing you that you have made changes.
    Click 'yes'
    This will open up in my case 'RealTek' driver.
    Click on 'advanced' tab
    'Wireless mode'
    Go to right hand side of dialogue box and select 'value' drop down box
    Select 'IEEE 802.11b/g'
    These deselects the 'n' router aspect as I believe our network adapters can't function with this.
    Now click 'ok'
    Let computer re-connect to router.
    Now try opening web pages.
    Problem solved (",)
    Hope this helps guys.
    If you want to disable the IPV6 through registry I will put up details on how to do this but I believe this should suffice.

  • Can't configure Wireless Connection to HP OfficeJet Pro L7780

    I recently purchased both my iMac 24" 2.8GHz computer with OS x 10.5.2 and HP OfficeJet Pro L7780. I was able to use the HP setup CDs for my Windows laptops and configured them to use the printer in a wireless configuration.
    The iMac is creating the headache (actually I think it's HP causing the headache). When I try to install HP's driver 9.7.1 using their utility, it is unable to detect the L7780 in a wireless configuration. The moment I connect via USB or wired Ethernet, the printer is detected without a problem. My printer is located @ 192.168.1.30, fixed IP address via a NetGear FSW308 switch. My iMac is fixed @ 192.168.1.100 and the gateway is 192.168.1.1
    I spent hours on the phone with HP support and am still in the same spot... HP software won't find the printer when it is wireless. I can configure OS x 10.5.2 to use the internal L7700 series driver and put the IP address in the dialog box. The printer prints without issue using the OS printer drivers, but the other features such as scan and fax will not work without the HP software.
    I can ping the printer and I can connect to the printer's EWS, but the HP software will not find the software.
    Overall config: iMac wireless network connection to switch; Printer also wireless connection to switch.
    So far HP is dumbfounded and all they can say is that I should call Apple because the printer software works fine when I connect the Ethernet or USB cables.
    HELP!
    Thanks,
    Roland

    Thank you for the thought. Yes, although my SSID is public, I have a WEP 128-bit security key. The printer, the iMac and my Windows laptops all connect to the wireless network without issue, as evidenced by my Windows laptops and iMac (if I use the driver included with OS X 10.5.2).
    I can ping the printer from the iMac as well as connect to the printer's web interface, so connectivity exists. It is as if the setup software or the printer are trying to communicate using a port that or service that OS X may be blocking.
    My OS X firewall is configured to accept all connections though... so that shouldn't be the issue unless there is a bug in accepting all connections.
    Thanks,
    Roland

  • I get wireless connection but my internet does not work on my ipad 2

    I get wireless connection but my internet does not work on my ipad 2

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Wireless connection not working after installed newest Lenovo ThinkVantage System Update programs

    Hi, everyone!
    I've installed some newest programs through Lenovo ThinkVantage System Update and just after that my wireless connection has stopped working. Here are the installed programs:
    ThinkPad UltraNav Driver for Windows 32-bit version 15.0.24.0;
    ThinkPad Power Management Driver version 1.60;
    ThinkPad Modem Adapter version 7.80.8.0;
    ThinkPad Hotkey Features Integration Package Setup version 3.11.0001;
    Inter Wireless WiFi Link for Window XP version 13.02.0000;
    ThinkVantage Access Connections for Windows XP version 5.62;
    ThinkPad Power Manager version 1.88;
    Lenovo ThinkVantage Toolbox (32-bit) version 6.0.5514.61.
    I've got a Lenovo T61 with Windows XP SP3.
    Also in Device Manager, there are now the two "Other devices" bellow with a yellow question point and a yellow exclamation point by side:
    Bluetooth Hands-free Audio;
    Bluetooth LAN Access Server Driver.
    Does anyone have any idea what can be done to have these issues solved?
    P.S.: when I click Fn+F5 it shows only the Bluetooth Radio.

    Hello and welcome,
    I've seen something like this on XP machines after updates a couple of times now - my T61, a friend's T400, and his daughter's T61.  I guess that makes 3
    _Maybe_  your situation is the same.
    The fix in all 3 cases was to go to device manager and uninstall the wifi driver.  Then scan for hardware changes and let it reinstall the driver.  Something about how Access Connections or some other networking mangement thingy was hooking the drivers I guess.
    On both of the friend's machines, the wired networking was also b0rked.  Same fix there.
