True.

Since it was two years ago, I would guess it was not even
draft 802.11n mode

Draft 11n devices have been available for much longer than that.

This is the device:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Panasonic-DY.../dp/B003922QY4

and it lists 11n under "Data Link Protocol" and "Compliant Standards",
and gives the data rate as 300Mb/s.

However, the Amazon page also says it has been available since
July 2006, which is before the draft 11n certification program,
so who knows what the truth is.

According to

http://panasonic.jp/support/global/c...b/option1.html

the cheaper WNDA3100 v.2 also works.

But bear in mind that this is all for the 2010 models; I don't think
we have even established the 2009 model has a USB port.

Hi all,

My Dad's got a late 2009 model Panasonic 32" full HD set with both
freeview & freesat built in. At the back of the set there's a standard
network socket to take a normal RJ45 UTP network lead.

His ADSL router is upstairs and his carpets are fixed down, so
unfortunately there's no way that I can run a network lead to the set
and he can't access the iPlayer feature as a result.

So... does anyone know if I can get hold of some kind of adapter that
I can plug into the socket and run it wirelessly instead?

Yep, give Solwise a ring as ask them for what they'd recommend working
on 5.8 Ghz away from the rabble on 2.4 G....

Not from upstairs to downstairs, which was the problem. That would be
done wirelessly via the dongle.

No, I still don't get it. If he can't run an ethernet cable from the
router to the TV he can't extend the telephone cable to the TV either.

The easiest, and cheapest solution would be a wireless bridge/gaming
adapter of some description.

I use this one for the same TV purpose
http://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-Link-TL-W...cp_computers_1

under £18 so cheaper than Homeplugs (and less power hungry). Streams
HD Video nicely.


My son uses one for his TV. very good

There is even a review on there with the setting to use.

Thanks everyone for the replies & suggestions.

It really does have to be a wireless solution. My dad's fanatically
tidy (compared to me & the chronic dump I live in) so no amount of
cable would be tolerated. I suspect that the cheapo WAP from Amazon
will be the way to go, as I don't believe he has a USB socket in the
set.

TTFN!
