Pretty straightforward.

1. Connect it to your existing router with a patch cable.
2. From your PC/laptop web browser, log in to it via the IP address.
3. Set wireless mode to 'client'
4. Enter SSID and wifi channel of your router.
5. Enter MAC address of your router.
6. Enter existing wireless security type (e.g. WPA) and passkey.
7. Disconnect patch cable from your router and plug it into your TV.

That's it. If you get stuck you can always ask on here. If you still can't get it to work send it back for a refund under Distance Selling Regs.

:cool:

I've just done it!! Thank you!

We/they went for the wireless option in the end as it was cheaper. I set it up as described above (thanks TOG) and it's working fine. It's a bit pixelly but I think they can live with that.

Thank you so much for your help everyone.

Just got mine to work eventually. The problem was nothing to do with the excellent advice on here but I had to do a factory reset on the TV before it would connect properly. So glad I didn't shell out for the Sony wireless connector, as now I have got it up and running I'm not that impressed with the content. Doesn't do as much as I thought it would and can't even get ITV Player or 4oD.

Ethernet powerline adaptors work a treat for my TV, PS3 and Xbox. Can't fault them
