Thanks Ken 43, my next TV will be android and not WebOS. I now have to cast my laptop to the TV to watch the video. I was hoping that at least they will provide another browser on WebOS store. But I was not able to find one.

I have a LG UJ6200 with WebOS TV Version 3.9.1-6280403. I use the browser on the TV to watch videos (movies or TV series) hosted by some web sites. I encountered a problem watching a few TV series. For example, I have no problem seeing Ep01 to EP04. But I got Video format not supported error on EP05 and later. I know that it is not the video because I can watch it using my computer chrome browser. It is possible that the web sites has done some updates which the TV browser does not support. Anyone has experience similar problem and found the fix ? Is there any other browser I can install on the TV to see if the problem can be fixed ?

Your TV should have an ethernet connection (my LG does). You have at least 2 options which just require some configuration. 1. What you need is what some people refer to as Wireless to Ethernet adapter (or bridge). The adapter send and receive wireless signal and your TV get the data through the Ethernet connection. This should cost less than $50. (just do a google search on wireless to ethernet adapter). BTW a WIFI extender will also give you a single ethernet port. You can also configure a router in wireless bridge mode and connect your TV to one of the LAN ports. I am using the router method at home for all my wired only devices. Most people has old wireless routers after upgrade. You may have one or get a used one really cheap or for free. If you just need that for supporting a single TV, I don't see the need of getting the latest technology. I think using 5G on a dual band router will be better. 2. Use a powerline adapter between you main router and your TV. This will cost slightly more. It also can be interfered by electric noise.

I have LG 65UJ6200 TV. It has build in Mira Screen support. My TV, my phone and my Android Tablet are all on my home network. On my Hauwei phone under setting / multi-screen, it picks up the TV (name of my TV). When I tap on it (name of my TV), the TV will show that a have a cast request. I just need to accept the request and my phone screen is mirrored to the TV. On my tablet , when I tap on setting/cast, I'll see the cast request on my TV. Once I accept the request, my Android tablet screen is displayed on the TV. Now I try to do it from my laptop using Ezmira for windows, it asks me to connect to the SSID of the TV. But I do not see that showing under available SSIDs for wireless connection. Have anyone experienced the same ? Is the SSID hidden or how can I get it ?

I got my TV yesterday. So I am new to LG TV and WebOS. I accepted the agreement without having to download anything. Everything is on the screen. I just has to check all the buttons on the left hand side and high light the agreed button at the bottom and hit OK button.
