Is it possible to connect a router to a TV? This is a popular request among owners of Smart TVs and regular devices with an adapter. Almost every apartment has a TV, it can be an old CRT or a new and modern one. For the first, you need a set-top box or tuner; this is the only way to watch digital television. The second requires practically nothing except a correct connection to the Network. This can be connected via cable or wireless network. The second scheme is preferable, since it will help avoid the presence of unnecessary wires in the house.
Why connect the router to the TV?
Connecting the router to the TV is, first of all, necessary for the operation of those functions of the TV device that are connected to the Internet. Most modern TVs have a special option called Smart TV. It provides many additional features.
For example:
- Internet access using a unique TV browser;
- the ability to watch films and TV series through special applications and online cinema;
- the ability to enter video chat, and also, if you have a webcam, make video calls using special applications;
- you can use the YouTube service to watch movies;
- you can access popular social networks: VKontakte, Facebook, Instagram, Odnoklassniki;
- you can install apps from Google Play Store.
All these options turn the TV into a multifunctional multimedia device.
What is Smart TV and how to use it
Smart TV is a set of software and hardware that allows the TV to perform many tasks. In terms of functionality, a device with Smart TV can be compared to a personal computer. This will allow you to access the Internet, play online games, communicate in instant messengers or social networks directly using the TV device.
In addition, the function allows you to connect the TV with a phone, tablet or laptop, display the image on a large screen and control it.
For the normal functioning of the television service via a Wi-Fi router you will need:
- router with connection to Internet services;
- TV with a built-in wireless module, cable connection or set-top box.
Note! If the device does not work on Wi-Fi, then you will need a special adapter that will replace the standard wireless module.
What do you need to connect your TV to the Internet via cable?
To wire connect an Internet router to a TV via cable, you will need to meet several conditions and have a number of devices. Namely:
- LAN cable (aka Ethernet);
- TV with smart TV and LAN interface;
- router;
- availability of Internet access.
Before connecting, find out the type of network (what protocol the provider uses). This can be done by contacting technical support or reading the terms of the contract with the company. Protocol options: PPPoE, L2TP, PPTP, dynamic or static IP.
Connection using a set-top box
You can also connect using a set-top box. This method is perfect for those who do not have a set-top box with a smart TV, that is, they do not have the opportunity to use the Internet. The set-top box connects all the functionality of a smart TV, and users can try it all before purchasing a device with Smart TV technology. Connection is very simple, all you need is:
- Connect an Ethernet cable to the router connector called WAN;
- We connect the router to the set-top box using a LAN cable;
- We connect the set-top box to the TV via an HDMI cable.
After this, you can use all the functionality of the device, including using the Internet.
Pros and cons of the connection method
Many may have a question - if you can use Wi-Fi, why run a bunch of wires at home? But the wired connection type has its own list of advantages:
- not all TVs have a built-in Wi-Fi module, in this case only a cable will save the situation;
- data transfer over a wired network is much faster than over Wi-Fi - almost all routers slow down, because they must distribute the signal to several devices simultaneously (between participants in the local network);
- cable connections are more stable than wired ones (there will be fewer data transmission failures).
But the wired method also has a drawback - the presence of wires. It is not always possible to fit them into the interior, and they often get in the way. This is especially true if the router and TV are far from each other.
Choosing a router
Antenna for a computer to strengthen the Wi-Fi signal
TV brand or other indicators have absolutely no meaning when choosing a router. It should be chosen based on personal preferences. The fact is that for normal operation of the Smart TV function, no special equipment is required. The TV itself is no different from the same laptop or tablet in terms of connecting to the Internet. And you can connect Smart TV to a wireless network through any router via Wi-Fi or using a network cable.
How can I connect a TV to a router via cable?
We will show and tell you how to connect your TV to the Internet using a router. This method is suitable for any type of protocol. But if this indicator is PPPoE, L2TP or PPTP protocol, you can only use routers to connect.
If you have a dynamic or static IP address, you can easily connect directly to the TV, but connecting to a router using a cable is also available.
To connect via a router, do the following:
- Connect the power cord to the WAN or Internet port.
- Configure the connection on the router in accordance with the protocol. Configuration is done on the local browser page at 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1. The debugging process depends on the router manufacturer (everything should be written in detail in the router manual).
- If the router has already been connected and configured for a long time, skip the first two steps. Take an Ethernet cable from your router. If it is not included in the kit or is too short for you, purchase a new element (labeled RJ-45) from a computer store.
- Connect the cable to the LAN port on the back of the router (choose any) - these outputs are usually yellow.
- Connect the other free end of the power cord to the LAN connector on the back of the TV with the same plug. It is recommended to turn on the TV.
Video instruction:
Connection via WPS
This is another fairly simple connection method. In order to use WPS - PIN, you should go to the device settings and tap on the “Network” item. There should be an item in it to connect using WPS. After this, a code will appear on the device screen that must be entered in the router settings.
To enter the code correctly, you need to enter the IP address of your router in the browser on your computer. After this, a login page will appear on the monitor itself, where you can enter both your login and password. In the settings we find an item that concerns WPS, and on some devices it is a separate item.
Tap on the button to add a device and enter the code that will be indicated on the TV screen. Tap on the connection, after which everything should be successful, a window with the caption “connected installed successfully” will appear in the settings.
Setting up TV with a wired connection
After physically connecting the TV and router, you need to configure the TV to receive Internet signals.
Setting up TV with “Dynamic IP”
If you have the “Dynamic IP” protocol, the Internet on the TV will be configured automatically after connecting the cable. This will be indicated by the message “Connected to a wired network” displayed on the screen. If the message does not appear and you do not have Internet access, perform manual debugging.
This procedure will be required, for example, when connecting a TV to a Samsung Smart TV:
- To enter settings, press the “Menu” button on the remote control.
- Select the “Network” section in the settings that open.
- Open the “Network Settings” section and press the “Enter” button.
- Specify “Cable” (cable connection) in the “Network View” parameter.
- Click Connect. Wait for the synchronization phase to complete.
For TV receivers from other manufacturers, the setup principle is the same, but the user interface will be different. Some parts may have the same name. The most important thing is to find a block with network or network connection settings.
For example, when connecting an LG, you must first click “Connection Setup” and then “Manual Setup”. Next, select "Wired Connection".
One thing to note here is that the router must have an active >>DHCP server, which will automatically assign IP addresses to devices connected to the network. Otherwise, you must manually enter all parameters. To do this, you will need to click on the “IP Settings” button.
How to set static IP and DNS on TV?
If you are directly connected to the Internet and use the IP Static protocol, after the initial TV settings (described in the previous section), in the TV receiver settings you must enter the data specified in the contract: IP address, DNS address. Where to enter them:
- After setting up your wired connection for the first time, go to the Connection Status section.
- Click Settings / IP Settings.
- Go to the IP settings section. Set the mode to “Manual” instead of automatic (the latter refers to the “Dynamic IP” protocol - this is the default setting).
- Enter all the data from the contract with the provider: IP address, mask, gateway and DNS server. Click OK. Then the Internet should start working.
How to set up a router for Smart TV
What are the differences between 3G and 4G networks: features, advantages and disadvantages
For most TVs on the market, all settings are carried out approximately the same. The names of the items may differ slightly, but the general meaning will be identical. In this regard, it will be quite easy to understand. The setup is carried out as follows:
- In the device settings, you need to find the “Network” item.
- Click on “Network Settings”.
- Confirm your selection, after which the “Automatic Network Configuration Wizard” will open.
- In the menu you need to indicate the correct connection method. You should choose wired.
- Wait a while for the TV to receive an IP address.
If after completing all operations an error window appears, you will need to manually enter all parameters. To do this, go to the “Network Status” menu, in which click on “IP Settings”. The data to be entered in this window can be found on the provider’s website or clarified by calling the support service.
Setting up a router for IPTV
You have connected your TV to the Internet via a router and now you must set up the IPTV feature to watch digital channels over the Internet. How to do it? To go to the web router interface, you must use the settings at 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1.
The further procedure depends on the router manufacturer. For example, in the new TP-Link operating system, the IPTV (multicast) function is automatically enabled - no additional debugging is required. If you have Asus, you need to enable multicast routing on your local network.
If you have a Zyxel Keenetic router, you need to do the following:
- To combine the Internet and IPTV, create a pair of interfaces and connect them to the WAN. For example, IPTV is provided through VLAN 10, Internet access is provided through VLAN 100 (you may have different details - contact your supplier or check your contract for information).
- To create a new IPoE connection to VLAN 10 (IPTV port), go to Internet - IPoE, and add a new interface with VLAN ID 10.
- Check the two checkboxes below the blue connector image. Configure the necessary interface settings. Similarly, we create a VLAN with ID 100 for the Internet.
- Enter the VLAN ID. Go to Home Network - IGMP Proxy and select Interface Allocation.
Connecting a router to an old TV
For this method, the user must have a router at home that has access to the Internet, as well as an old TV with a special “Tulip” input. Then the user will be able to watch television using the Internet. You will also need to use the special attachment mentioned earlier. It connects directly, after which the wire goes to the router. The method is very convenient, because using it you can revive even an old TV and make it possible to watch different videos on it or use the Internet in general.
Individual cases
Let's look separately at the nuances of connecting routers to TVs of some specific brands, as well as connecting old TVs.
Connection on Android TV
As Android TV becomes more common on modern TVs, the connection process is becoming easier. If you connect the device to the router using a cable, the TV will automatically detect it and connect to the network. You can verify this by doing the following:
- Go to your TV's Settings.
- In the “Network and Internet” section, the fine print should indicate “the device is connected to Ethernet” (instead of “WiFiKA.RU”, as shown in the figure below).
Connecting a router to an old TV
If you have a router at home with Internet access and an old TV with a “tulip” input, you can use a special smart TV box to watch digital television and use the World Wide Web. It connects directly to the TV and then to the router via a wired connection or Wi-Fi.
Using a set-top box, the signal is converted and displayed on the TV. They are rented from different operators or purchased by users.
Features of connecting to TV of some other routers:
- MTS. The router or receiver provided by MTS is suitable for viewing high quality digital channels. If the TV has a CI + connector and a built-in DVB-C receiver (usually most TVs), the user can use the cam module instead of an HD set-top box.
- ZTE and Asus. There are no special problems with ZTE routers. Often you may only need to manually set the settings because the TV cannot adjust them automatically. When using ASUS routers, it is recommended to update the operating systems of devices released in 2014-2016, as they are relatively slow and often prone to errors.
Routers from Rostelecom, Beeline, Xiaomi are connected to the TV according to the classic scheme.
The last argument
Surprisingly, you can connect your TV to a router even without Smart TV support. Many will ask whether there is any point in such a connection at all, and you will get the answer to the question by reading this section. You will need to purchase a compact computer running on the Android operating system or its own alternative developed by the manufacturer. Some of these devices use a cable, but most can be connected using a compact HDMI plug. The cost varies between 2.5–10 thousand rubles, which is determined by the technical content and functionality.
The compact computer that connects to the TV is equipped with a built-in Wi-Fi module. This means that it can independently connect to the router using its own settings menu. In addition, it allows you to connect tablets and smartphones to use them as remote controls and keyboards, or to stream media. Its only drawback is the impossibility of simultaneously using other accessories connected to the TV, for example, flash drives or external hard drives. However, most of these computers provide the ability to install a memory card, which solves problems with additional storage devices.
Since such devices have their own operating system, they can not only access the global network and allow a person to use multimedia content online, but the user can launch various applications: games, weather forecasts, information services, social network clients and many others. In addition, most HDMI set-top boxes for TVs support Airplay, Miralink and some others, making them suitable for streaming audio and video files from smartphones and tablets, and can also communicate with other home electronics equipped with wireless modules. Also, in this case, there will be no problems with compatibility, since the manufacturer simply cannot control the type of signal transmitted through the HDMI connectors, and the next firmware will not deprive you of Wi-Fi. But it is worth remembering that budget devices of this type rarely delight the user with the same performance as a TV, so you will have to pay a considerable amount for convenience.
Possible problems when connecting via cable
Although connecting to a router is not as difficult as it may seem, users often face a lot of problems when connecting these devices. Therefore, we have collected some common errors when connecting a router and a TV, and described their solution.
General measures:
- Download the device firmware to your PC. This must be done from the official website of the TV manufacturer. Try writing the downloaded files to a flash drive formatted in FAT32. Next, insert the flash drive into the TV and activate the file.
- It may be useful to upgrade your television equipment. To do this, select the appropriate item in “Settings”. Next, you must “agree” to the license agreement and then wait for the update to complete downloading.
You can also reset your TV settings. To do this, go to System Preferences and click the Reset tab. Then you need to enter your PIN. The default combination is “0000”. Next, you must agree to the terms of the user agreement. After this, you should try to connect to the router again.
When setting up the router, the system asks you to enter a password
Requesting a password when connecting a router is a common situation for some Smart TV operating systems. Typically, the password in this case is the same as the router password or PIN code.
The cable is connected correctly, but the device does not respond to the wire
In this case, pay attention to the integrity of the network cable. These wires are very fragile, especially where they are connected. If possible, do not tape the LAN cable, but replace it with a new one.
After connecting to the router, noise appeared on the screen
If there is noise on the screen, you should perform a factory reset. To do this, go to the System Settings section and click on the reset option.
The TV does not see the Wi-Fi router
You should first check if your internet connection is turned on. If the answer is yes, then most likely the problem is that the surfaces of the devices are not touching. Solution: Move your Wi-Fi router closer to your TV.
Measures for Samsung TV
If, when you try to connect your Samsung TV to the router, the Internet connection fails, there are a number of measures you can take. They are as follows:
- Reboot your router and try connecting again.
- Make sure that the cable with which you want to connect your Samsung TV to the Internet is working correctly (for example, you can connect your computer to it, and if the PC works, it is not the problem).
You can try the same steps if you have an LG TV.
Connecting a TV to a router via cable is not the easiest way, but it is the most reliable and stable. A cable connection is better, if only because when watching high-quality movies via Wi-Fi, freezes, problems with image quality and other nuances may occur that are not observed with a cable connection.
Which router is suitable for a TV?
In order to have access to all the delights of Smart TV, the user will need a router, and it can be the most ordinary one; the router can also be the most ordinary one. No need for additional ones. Connecting a router and a router is not such a serious issue.
In order for the TV to show in the future without any freezes, you need to connect to the Internet at a normal speed of at least 50 Mbit per second or to your home network. All providers offer plans with higher speeds, so there will be no problems.
You can choose any router model, including a router. No need to look at the manufacturer and other characteristics. These characteristics, according to experts, are not particularly important.
The only advice when choosing is not to use budget models, because the device may not withstand the load and burn out.
Connecting and setting up TV models
Samsung
If you've read our previous TV guides, then you probably already know that in the case of Samsung TVs, they need to be considered depending on their series. But in the case of a wireless or wired connection, everything is much simpler.
No matter what series your TV is, only the initial buttons on the remote control with which you call up the menu will change. In essence, all further actions will be the same. So, for example, you should go to the “network” section. Next, you must select “network settings”.
In this section, you must select the connection method (wired or wireless). Also, some TV models will need to be connected using One Foot Connection or Plug & Access. In this case, the corresponding sections will simply appear in the network connection types, which you will have to select.
After that, you must click on the button to search for wireless networks. As a rule, if the router is close, the signal will be one of the first. Select your router, enter the password (if you set one), wait for the connection and enjoy movies or music from the Internet.
LG
In the case of LG TVs, connecting and setting up the Internet is much simpler than with any others. The fact is that all LG TVs that have Smart TV and manufactured after 2012 have built-in Wi-Fi modules. That is, if you bought a TV less than 9 years ago, then in any case you can set up Wi-Fi on it without additional devices or various tricks.
The convenience of LG TVs lies in the fact that initially, even when you turn it on for the first time, it will automatically offer to configure your Smart TV, and one of the points will be connecting the TV to the Internet. In addition, the device will also automatically prompt you to select a connection method (wired or wireless).
Initially, make sure that your router is active and that it will also be able to transmit Wi-Fi to the TV. After this, you will have to go to the TV settings and go to the “basic” section.
Next, select “advanced settings”. There you will see a “network” section, and then “connect to a Wi-Fi network.” The search for new devices will start automatically. All you need to do is select the network that your router distributes. All you have to do is enter the password (if it is set), and then confirm the entry with the OK key on the remote control. Subsequently, the TV will connect to the router automatically, just like any other equipment in the house.
If you have an LG TV purchased before 2012
In this case, you will have to either connect the TV directly via cable, or purchase an additional Wi-Fi receiver. As we said above, you will have to connect it either via USB or via HDMI output. Do this, and then repeat the steps described in the paragraph above.
Sony
Let’s say right away that Sony treats its gadgets responsibly, and the instructions for each TV have a detailed section that describes step by step all the steps associated with connecting the TV to the Internet, both wired and wireless. But if we do something, we do it completely and to the end, so we will tell you about that too.
In the case of Sony TVs, you just need WPS technology, which we wrote about at the beginning of our article. In general, a Sony TV can be connected to Wi-Fi in 3 ways, so we will briefly tell you about each of them.
- WPS is exactly what we were talking about. You will have to go to the TV settings by pressing the “home” key. Next, go to settings, and then to network settings. In the menu that opens, select “wireless setup”, then select WPS (Push Button). Next, the TV itself will prompt you to press the WPS button on the router. Don't forget that you need to hold it for about half a minute.
- WPS PIN - in this case, you do everything the same, only in this case you will have to connect to Wi-Fi manually by entering the PIN code, and then following the instructions of the system.
- The last method is that you must manually enter the SSID details (your network name and network key). This information is obtained from the provider, but, to be honest, we find this method too long, complicated and useless. You will have to use it if in the first 2 cases something went wrong (and this happens very rarely, and in such cases the reason is a defective TV, and not a problem with the data).
Notably, you will have to update the Smart TV content. Similarly, go to home, settings, network. There you will see the option “update Internet content”. Click on it, after which you will see the full capabilities of your Smart TV.
Philips
In the case of TVs from this manufacturer, you will also need WPS technology, but otherwise, you can do without it, but then you will need to enter your data manually. Initially, you will need to go to home, and then go to the settings section. Go to “installation” and then click on “connect to network”.
Next, the TV will ask you how you want to connect, wired or wireless. Choose what you need. In the first case, the TV will immediately receive an IP address, and all further setup will be done automatically.
In the second case, the TV will offer you a connection method: regular or via WPS. As we wrote earlier, everything will be much easier through WPS. In normal mode, you will have to find your network yourself and enter the password there, if you have one.
After this, the TV will tell you that it is successfully connected to your home network, and then it will write that the TV is ready to connect to the Internet. All you have to do is complete the setup process, after which you can safely go online.
Poll: Which TV do you think is easiest to connect to Wi-Fi?
Samsung, because Does its OS use programs that are not found on any other TV?
100%
LG, because all new, even relatively new, models of their TVs have a built-in Wi-Fi receiver.
0%
Sony, because All you need to do is press one button on the router.
0%
All this is complicated; it is much more convenient to use a Smart TV set-top box.

How to connect an old TV without a built-in Wi-Fi adapter to the Internet via a router via Wi-Fi
Not all TVs are equipped with a built-in Wi-Fi adapter. But this does not mean that you cannot connect them to a stationary router. To understand how to make Wi-Fi on a TV if there is none, you need to carefully study several working methods.
Wi-Fi adapter
If the TV does not have a built-in adapter for signal transmission, and the use of wires is not suitable for some reason (a wired connection is not very convenient because it requires laying a wire), you can use external adapters for Wi-Fi. They are not too expensive and are sold everywhere in specialized stores. Many well-known manufacturers produce such devices.
An important requirement when connecting is the ability of your home router to distribute a wireless Internet connection. However, most modern routers have this function.
Important! When talking about whether it is possible to connect a Wi-Fi adapter to a TV without a Smart TV, experts clearly give a negative answer. This is due to the fact that in such models there is no need to connect to the network at all. They don't have apps that let you watch videos or access websites.
MiraScreen adapter
The MiraScreen adapter is often found on store shelves. It allows you to increase the functionality of not only your TV, but also monitors or projectors. However, more often it is used specifically for TV. Adapters of this type allow you to broadcast images to a large screen from mobile devices, as well as media content. These devices support several technologies for transmitting video, images and audio. Modern devices usually have built-in support.
The MiraScreen adapter can solve several problems:
- Add support for necessary functions to TVs that do not have Smart TVs, monitors or projectors. An important requirement is the presence of an HDMI input.
- Display images from iOS devices.
The MiraScreen adapter is widely available and can be found on store shelves very easily.
Android set-top box
The only and easiest way to connect an old TV without a built-in Wi-Fi module to the Internet is to install a set-top box on the Android platform. The software basis of such set-top boxes is no different from that installed on smartphones or tablets. Therefore, it is ideal for devices without Smart and Wi-Fi support. The Android operating system provides the ability to install any application.
A special advantage of the Android set-top box is the ability to connect in 3 convenient ways:
- HDMI cable;
- AV cable;
- HDMI adapter adapter.
The choice of connection method also determines the image quality. When using an HDMI cable, the picture quality will be better than with tulips. They are suitable for older TV models.
Setting up the console is very simple. It must be connected to both the TV and the router. This can be done either using a cable or via a Wi-Fi connection. In the first case, you just need to insert the cable into the desired socket of the router. In the second, you must enter the installed security key. Then you can proceed with the settings (install applications, change the language, etc.).
Important! There are a lot of consoles running on the Android platform on the modern market. In order to choose the most suitable option, you should carefully study reviews of popular models. Some providers also provide set-top boxes with such capabilities along with their services.
MHL cable for phone or tablet
You can also connect a smartphone or tablet to the TV. This may be needed in order to broadcast photos or videos on a large screen, but the output device does not support Wi-Fi or does not have it for some reason. A cable connection is also suitable in cases where the Internet signal is very weak and does not allow you to display a high-quality image on the screen.
In order to connect a tablet or phone to a TV via a cable, you need to use gadgets that are compatible with this. For general setup you need:
- phone or other MHL-enabled device;
- HDMI cable and power;
- MHL adapter;
- TV with an HDMI connector.
Important! The connection process is very simple. And thanks to the charging port, your mobile device will not be discharged while watching.
Connecting TV to PC or laptop
Connecting a TV to a personal computer or laptop is also very simple. This method allows you to broadcast everything that happens on your computer monitor onto the TV screen. You can not only watch movies and TV series, but also use the large computer screen as a desktop.
In order to connect in this way, you will also need an HDMI cable and a suitable connector for it on the TV. No additional settings are required on it, only on the computer. You just need to connect 2 devices to each other, select the desired input in the settings and enjoy watching.
Connecting your laptop or PC to your TV is very easy. All you need is an HDMI cable
#2 Without wire
Here's what you need to do to connect your TV to a Wi-Fi router without a wire:
- Remember the following data - login and password for the wireless network (preferably your own). But many people manage to find out their neighbor’s WiFi password and waste their traffic, not their own.
- Turn on the TV;
- Open the menu and select “Network”, then go to settings;
- Select "Wireless Connection";
- The system will search and display the available option;
- Click on your network and enter your password. Ready!
#3 Through a router
The previous instructions are only suitable for devices with a built-in module. What if you need to connect a TV without WiFi to the Internet via a WiFi router? Read below:
- Purchase a special module at a hardware store;
- Place the device into the USB connector;
- Go to the wireless connection settings again (as described above);
- Find the connection you need;
- Select “Setting from a list of access points (AP)” if you know the login and password for the home. networks;
- Click on “Easy installation (WPS button mode)” if the device supports automatic connection to Wi-Fi;
- Click on “Settings (Ad hoc)” if you need a local connection.
Great, so we figured out how a router for digital television works! It's time to move on to the next part of the review, dedicated to Smart TV.
What should I do if I get the “connected without internet” error on my TV?
It happens that you did everything according to the instructions, but the message “connected without the Internet” is displayed on the TV. We immediately recommend that you make sure that the Internet is available on other devices. In such a case, you should try the following solutions:
- Reset the router settings. To do this, press the Reset button on the router body (you need to hold it for 7-10 seconds). After restarting and resetting the settings, you will have to connect the TV to the network again.
- Delete all saved Wi-Fi networks on the TV. To do this, open the “Network” tab, then “Wireless” or “Wi-Fi” and using the Options key or the mouse pointer, go to its properties and delete it. Then we look for the network again and connect to it.
- Problem with the application. Sometimes the message is shown only on YouTube, even though there is Internet on TV. The problem can be fixed by rolling back the application to the pre-installed version or, on the contrary, updating YouTube.
- Reset the TV settings to factory settings. We can do this in the settings.
The methods listed should be sufficient to connect any TV to the Internet, both with and without a Smart platform.
In most cases, we recommend using the first or second method, as it is the most convenient, but there is always an alternative. We hope the guide helped you. Found a typo? Select the text and press Ctrl + Enter
