I purchased a Samsung Plasma TV (model PN58B860) specifically because of its internet capability. I have had no luck connecting this TV to my network via Airport Extreme. I have the dongle for the wireless connection and have followed the instructions. I would appreciate any help or insight anyone out there has. Thanks in advance.
I do not think this is the solution I am looking for, but it did give me some ideas on other things I am interested in. My TV is internet ready, my connect fails at the gateway(?). Again thank you for trying to help.
Has anyone had luck on this problem, I have exactly the same issue and have tried:
TV + USB Wireless Stick to Airport, manual & auto config (fails at gateway)
TV + Network Cable to Airport, manual & auto config (fails at gateway)
I didn't want to reconfigure my whole Wireless network which currently separate from the modem-router & secure so had to:
1. Name & turn on the (previously disabled) wireless functionality of my wireless modem
2. Enable the WEP functionality & set a HEX security key (i.e. A-F & 0-9)
3a. Set up a MAC ADDRESS filter (on the modem) specifically for the Samsung Wireless USB dongle
3b. NOTE: You can find this under [MENU] > SETUP > NETWORK SETUP > 'Network Test'
4a. Go to: [MENU] > SETUP > NETWORK SETUP > 'Select a Network' - it should locate your network
4b. Select your network, run a networks test and that should be it!
Important to note, I am running this network in parallel with my other secure network but if you want to do it all from the same wireless modem/hub then you will want to set up MAC Address filters for all the machines on your network.
I understand the words and the concept, but have no clue where to do this on my Airport. I have looked at there does not seem to be a place to specify MAC addresses, etc. Could you be a more clear on the steps involved. You seem to have a good command of what is needed and I appreciate the help already given.
I'm have a Samsung LN40B7501F LCD TV and I'm using the Samsung WIS09ABGN wireless LAN adapter to connect the TV to internet via my Apple Airport Extreme but I can't get pass the Gateway Ping. I would like to know what settings I should use on the AirPort Extreme to overcome this problem?
