Questions & Answers

Shopper : I purchased a LG AN-WF100 WIRELESS ADAPTOR FOR MY LD550 ,,IT WON'T FIT THE SOCKET ON THE BACK OF THE TV, THE SOCKET LOOKS LIKE MINI HDMI SOCKET, AND THE ADAPTOR LOOKS LIKE A USB SOCKET; DID I BUY THE WRONG ITEM???BILL K : Please take a photo of each and resubmit your question. Thank youKEN S : The TV manual will specify the "exact" adapter that fits. The an-wf100 does fit a USB connection.DEBRA W : My LG has the USB for the dongle on the left side where the headphone and component ports are.
Shopper : Will this work with TV Model 55LM5800?WILLIAM R : Hi, The Sony Dongle is a Sony dedicated product it is recognized by Sony products only. As to a specific unit, Call Sony Customer service and they can give you the correct answer. There are many Sony devices on the market and it is possible that not all are compatible w/this dongle.ERVIN C : My owner's manual is good for 22 different models, but yours isn't one of them. I suggest you Google your model number and look for a manual. It will tell you which Wifi adapter you need.ANDREW R : LG indicates the following regarding compatibility: LED LCD TV: LW6500, LW5700, LW5600, LV5500, LV5400, LV3700, LE7, LE55, LE54 series LCD TV: LK550, LD8, LD7, LD6, LD5 series Plasma TV: PZ950, PZ750, PZ550 (Netcast Series), PK7, PK9, PX9 series Projector: HX350Y, HW300 Supported models are subject to change without notice.
Shopper : I just bought an LG 60" LN5710. The salesman told us we needed to purchase this to connect wirelessly to my wireless internet router. Is this one compatable for my tv model? why does it not work on my netgear dongle?T.A. S : Yes, you will need the adapter for your television to connect to the wireless router. Newer models have this set-up internally so it's not required. I have never used the netgear dongle. Sorry, but I hope this helps.STEVE C : I have a different model LG set so I can't answer your question. However, that WiFi dongle does work flawlessly with my set. I strongly suggest that you refer to your users guide or you can have a "live chat" with an LG rep through their web site.STEVE S : We have an LG 42 LCD andd purchsed the USB Wi-Fi dongle. I have a Cisco Linksys wirelesss router and connected very easily so we could watch netflix on the TV using the dongle.DEBRA W : I don't have netgear, but I have a LG 42" LED/LCD TV that is a couple years old and this dongle has been working just fine to connect wirelessly to my router. I've had no problems getting to Netflix etc. on my TV through it's use.KIM B : I bought a different model tv. I would refer to your tv model owners manual for a correct recommendation . Good luck. Mine works fine, every time, for my model tv.

product does allow you to access smart screen apps

We had a router/modem hooked up to TV by ethernet, worked great. We had to bring the router up to the office. The LG WiFi USB adapter brings a wireless internet signal to the TV and it works pretty good for Netflix but MLB Baseball freezes alot and switching to the visitor's broadcast rarely works, it usually kicks you off. We have COX High Speed internet so can't blame it on the internet speed.

Works as expected

Simple device to use. Just plug it in and it finds your network. Assume price is average for device.

Works OK on WEP or open system; WPA2 whammies it

Wasted 90 minutes today at a customer site attempting to figure out why his LG smart TV kept claiming it couldn't connect through our network because the "DNS wasn't working properly," or when it did, why it would stall attempting to load services such as Netflix or Hulu. Finally determined that the adapter was fine handling unencrypted or WEP signals from the customer's router, but when presented with a WPA2-PSK/AES connection it apparently didn't have the computational chops to keep up, and instead flung blame all over everything else. Unit documentation claims it will handle "64/128 bit WEP, WPA, WPA2, TKIP, AES, WPS (PIN, PBC," but this one sure didn't.

Only lacking in speed

very low profile, but lacking in download speed. Netflix takes longer to buffer than my other built-in wifi tv's.

Dongle works, LG TV doesn't

Easy installation and internet connection. The problem I'm having is with the TV its self. Apparently I need a software update from LG, 08.03.07 according to LG support, but I am getting 05.03.07. I've talked to 5 different people at LG and gotten only promises which are unfulfilled. Almost every time the TV is turned on with the dongle installed it tries to the update but is unsuccessful. I can not get any streamed programming at this time.

For whatever reason

The wireless finally connected from the main menu when I selected connect. After countless failures during the test menu.

Why sell it separately?

This product allows selected LG TVs to access some very useful and well integrated Net apps (called Netcast Entertainment): youtube, netflix, picasa, weather, news, etc. All the more reason for LG to include this product in the package when you buy one of the above mentioned TVs, instead of selling it separately.

Great Value for the Price !!

I purchased this adaptor and love it. Hooked in the adaptor to the LG 42LE5400 and was connected to the wireless network in a jiffy. Easy to setup and works great. No issues with connectivity or streaming issues.

WiFi for LG TV - Works Great

I purchased this to connect an LG 32LE5400 LED-LCD TV to my router. LG designed it to plug in and work. There is no configuration required to connect it to the TV, simply plug it into a USB port on the back of the set. I have an older bg router, with WEP enabled. Entering the 26 hex digits for the WEP into the TV using the remote took a few minutes. But the set (or maybe the WiFi dongle) remembers the WEP key when you power cycle, so this is a one-time annoyance (entering the key). The TV did a software upgrade through the WiFi connection without a problem. And I watched some Netflix videos without any glitches. Before purchasing this, I tried using a PC USB port WiFi dongle. The LG 32LE5400 did not recognize it. So I suggest not wasting time and money (as I did) trying to get a cheaper WiFi device.

So easy!

Got the wireless USB adapter as part of a package deal with my TV purchase (47LE5400). It was very simple to connect to my home network. My wireless router is in the living room, about 25-30 feet from the bedroom location of the TV. The TV had no problem "seeing" the router and signal strength is good. Internet enabled content (via Yahoo Widgets and YouTube) is delivered quickly to the TV. Haven't tried the NetFlix or Vudu yet so don't know about how well movies will download.
