    Basically yes. As I understand it you have to buy a Samsung adaptor to connect your smart TV wirelessly to the internet. I don't think that cheaper versions will work - you can't load a driver to the TV!

    As these are somewhat expensive (£35), I simply ran a long Ethernet cable between the router and the TV cost about £8. No problems at all, just plugged it in the Ethernet socket and it worked.

    My TV is a UE40D5520 If you post the full model number of yours we may be able to help more.
