The Roku box connects to the Internet and to your TV, and allows you to stream Netflix movies on your queue to your TV -- any TV, analog, digital, Hi-Def. Only those movies Netflix offers for streaming are viewable - Netflix doesn't offer streaming on all of its selections, just some.cut and paste this into your address bar:http://www.productwiki.com/roku-netflix-player/I'm not endorsing the Roku, just using it as an example of an external box that you can connect to the internet and to your TV to view stream-able Netflix offerings.My email address is eldauster@yahoo.com.

if I am connection through the pc (most prob. RS 232 port ) then what is the ethernet (internet) Jack is there for ?Does anyone know ?
1338666
There are three built-in apps served by USA Today that are enabled with an ethernet connection - news, weather, and stocks. These are "widgets" that you can call up as overlays while watching TV.

You can connect the computer to the Samsung and use the Samsung as your computer monitor, but if you have a video card in your computer set for a smaller resolution - and most all computers do not have 1980x1080 capability - then the smaller resolution video signal output by your computer will result in a less-than full-sized image on the Samsung.That's the theory anyway, I haven't tried it, and I don't believe the Sammy will up-convert the computer's VGA signal, but hopefully someone smarter than me will come along and correct me if I'm wrong.

I get Netflix and now you can watch it on your computer screen right away. Does anyone know if you can transfer the movie from your computer to the Samsung A650? Thanks.
1338669
I have copied my movies to my NAS storage or an external USB device. By the way, I have a wired and wireless network. Then I use my laptop to connect to the movie storage wirelessly. Using the VGA port from the laptop, I am able to use the 650 as either the primary or secondary screen for the movie output. I also use 1920X1080 @60Hz on my laptop to fullfill the 650. That pretty much compensates the difference between 650 and 750.
1338670
Thanks for the clarification re: nothing different re: 750 with that feature..but if you could please explain-what do you mean that any tv could do that (the nexflix movie from computer monitor to the tv...with an external box..?? What external box? Sorry, I lost some part of that..thanks in advance for helping me understand that..
1338671
Do you know if the A750 can do this or it's more a computer thing..because at PC Richards they were telling me that an added feature of the 750 was that I could get a movie from the computer and see it on the 750...I may have misunderstood and they may have been wrong..I have learned that the salespeople don't always really understand the workings of these sets...thanks for your response..
1338672
It may be that the salesperson is enthusiastically describing a capability that requires more than the TV. I'm not aware of the 750 having that capability -- and any TV can display your Netflix-streamed movies with an external box like this:http://www.productwiki.com/roku-netflix-player/You might want to check in with some 750 users about this capability. I'd be surprised if it's built-in to the TV, but I've been surprised before...

Well doesn't amazon sell hdmi cables with ethernet? so im assuming that if you hook up the ps3 to the internet via wifi to your router, and then hook up an hdmi ethernet cable from your ps3 to you tv..shouldn't that give your tv internet?it is worth a try [i really don't know if it will work since i don't have either, just using advanced common sense :)

Is there an Ethernet connection on this tv? I have seen conflicting reports on this.Thanks,Jer

I'm not an authority on the kind of router you have...but..it would seem to me that you would be better off using a wireless adapter that also has an ethernet plug. That way, you can reach your computer with the wireless antenna without having to use an ethernet connection, but you can also use the ethernet connection to plug a cable into your TV.

The TV is advertised as "WiFi Ready", not "WiFi Built in". What that means is that it does not have WiFi without a WiFi adapter that you have to buy separately.I plug my Panasonic directly into an Ethernet router. That works great.I can stream movies directly from providers like Netflix and Amazon.But since I have never had a need to get an adapter I have neverused one. I suspect it would work like my Ethernet cable.Plug it in one of the USB ports, log-on to your wireless router,hit the Internet button on the controller and your good to go.Here is a sample adapter: Panasonic TY-WL20U Wireless Adapter for Panasonic 2012 Internet Ready TVs The TV is advertised as "WiFi Ready", not "WiFi Built in".

Thanks for your inquiry . Please connect the TV Box to the TV with a HDMI cable .Then tap "WiFi Setting" in the TV BOX and connect Wi-Fi network to which you want to connect. Then you can go to the internet .browse the Web.download games .etc At this point .Your TV is a MINI PC .

Yes and no. Yes you can connet your router to your TV but this will not give you access to the internet, you need a computer to do that. The only internet acces you will have is if your TV has built in Apps such as NetFlix ect. You can run your computer through your TV by using a Switch in combination with your router. Unless you are knowlegable in computers, I wouln't suggest you try it because it does take some technical expertise to accomplish. Sorry I coudn't be more helpful.

If I remember correctly you need to use the Ethernet port on the back of the TV and connect to your router directly. Not many people have this close to their TV though.... then sign up for amazon. The few movies I watched were decent. If it was wireless it would be easier.....

First of all, you can type and search titles with the TV...you have to use the remote of course. We use our tv to stream netflix. It picks up our wireless single from our living room in our bedroom. It's been really awesome and we don't have cable either. If you have a netflix subscription and a wireless internet connection you should not need any extra hardware with this tv. :-)

You need to have a wireless access point on your network and have it configured correctly. The actual internet service you have doesn't have anything to do with the connectivity of this television. Check the TV's wifi specs and purchase a wireless access point (sometimes referred to as a router with a wireless radio) that is capable of transmitting a signal that is compatible with the TV's wireless card. If you are unsure how to do any of this, I'd recommend hiring someone to set it up for you.

There is a specific HDMI cable that connects the TV to the Internet. This allows you to connect easily and may be the solution to the end of Cable TV

If your TV has Ethernet connection socket, then this device can help you connect the TV to internet. The device is able to harness WiFi signal and output it through Ethernet port. Then you can connect your TV through Ethernet cable.

You should as I do. The setup is pretty simple. Instructions are provided. You're device will need to be truly equipped with wi-fi capabilities. If it's a device that enables smart apps on your tv, those usually still require an ethernet connection to a modem or a device like this. But this will at least provide a remote hard wire access point in those situations.

J. L. - you will need a cable box or a satellite box to operate... TAke HDMI from either the boxes mentioned and plug into CoStar HDMI input and HDMI out to the HDMI of TV or for non HDMI use the other cable provided with CoStar... Note: you will need two HDMI cables to connect or one more if you already have one... Remote works well with other devices... Wireless or wired works very well which allows you to surf and use internet....

Honestly...this product is not going to do anything for your TV. You need something like the "Mini MK802 Android 4.0 Google TV Box HD IPTV Player PC Allwinner A10 1G DDR3" if your goal is to make your TV a "smart" TV. I have not bought one, but it is on my to buy list as my TV has a USB port, but does not have an ethernet port. This will allow me to get the Android Netflix app etc. Amazon won't let me include a link but you can buy that device here at Amazon.com
