Has anyone used the Wi-Fi on this model? I'm interested in how it works via an iPad or regular computer.

The Ipad won't work with this TV. If you want a "tablet" you must buy a Samsung product and pair it with the TV. If you don't want to go to that trouble just go out and buy a bluetooth mouse and keyboard and hook it up to your TV

It connects to you router for updates ect. I don't believe you'll be abel to connect to your laptop or pad.

Can you explain what you actually want to do? Connect to the TV via your computer or iPad? I'm not sure this is possible. Otherwise, the wi-fi works fine for updating the Samsung firmware, SmartTV HUB and all its apps

Use the online version, not the download version. Do it with your phone not your computer. Both times I did it with phone worked fine, once with iPad did not. Saw that someone else online had the same issue. iPad might have worked it I had the cell turned on, I think you need both wifi and cell capability in the device you use to set it up.

I have absolutely NO problem with the WiFi. I have had NO problem with this machine at all since I got it . I was afraid to get it for the same reason.

I have this ipad without any carrier. I just have wifi. It depends if you purchased the ipad with a carrier. did you buy this ipad with only wifi, or is it wifi and Data? You can use the ipad with no carrier if it's just wifi. If it's with data you have to pick the carrier with whom you have a contract

We haven't been able to get ours to work. I even took it to the Apple Store to see if they could help. It's not putting off a signal to connect to the iPad. Good luck!

I haven't had problems with wifi. You may want to see if you have the latest software for it.

I use an Apple airport wifi adaptor and have had no problems. Works great. I get excellent network connection and stream music all day long. I really like this unit because of the iPad and iPhone apps that let me control it. Much better display and interface than the front panel.

Dear Abuzer, I am not passionate of computer science and get bored to death very soon with those useless manual (on paper or on line the are equally hopeless). So after a few attempts, I gave up and connected the consolette to the audio output jack of a spare apple base station. As a result it is now connected to the home wi-fi but not on its "own device". If I have time to waste in the future will give it another try

Just wifi is fine, that's what I have. I do have AT&T; mobile service but I have not associated the phone and IPAD as yet.

I still havent got it working as far as the Wifi is concerned. Works as long as its plugged into computer. I got some pointers from our IT guy where I work but just havent had time to try it again.

I am not a tech person BUT our iPad 4s worked off from the wi fi I had for my computers. Just be sure you have your password.

Christine: It took me months to figure this out and I am sorry to tell you that I gave up. I downloaded the remote on my iPad and it works perfectly OK. I had email "conversations" for months with a support person who was very patient and tried to figure this out. Then my brother in-law came to visit and he told me that I had to make sure EVERY TIME that the Bluetooth in Settings on iphone shows connected (same on iPad). It still did not work on the phone but worked fine on iPad. Now, after a few months, I can say Aleluya, it works just by going to the app and touching the power button to turn the device on. Good luck. Hope this helped. Eva

All ipads come with built in wifi. What you dont get is a GPS if you buy the wifi only model. If you get the 4g model you get wifi + Gps. I did not know this when I bought my ipad3 without 3g so i had to buy an external gps to connect via usb to my ipad and use it for navigation purposes while flying an airplane. While driving a car using maps you will need 3g to get the maps data while moving

I'm curious, has anyone tried both the Apple Airport Extreme 5th Gen, and Linksys e4200? Feature wise they appear the same, but what about in terms of reliablity

Ive had some issues with connecting this model to the internet, and i think other people have as well, "I'm not exactly sure if it even is WIFI capable." It only has a network cable port in the back. though i believe i did get the network cable to work. but when i downloaded Netflix, and went to go use Netflix it didn't work, so i just use my Ps3, Xbox, or blue-ray player, to stream stuff. sorry i cant answer your question, but i figured i would post you my the problems i have had. good luck.

i have had lots of issues with the router. i would sit outside with my iphone controlling my music via apple tv and the connection to the wifi would drop. i was sitting maybe 30 ft away. also the router need to be reset a lot. i would have to unplug and plug back in to get it to reset. The speed is fine. Not sure if you should buy this router, though i don't have any recommendations. i am connected to a Time Warner cable modem.
