Hiya, Not technical savvy so here you go. Got a digihome TV, got a WI FI connector/booster but getting no network signal - any ideas please? Even when I change source still getting the same thing. Tried both sockets on the side of the telly.


Thank you.

Thank you.

Unless you give specific information it will become all be pages of guess work. So lets start with the basics:

Digihome TV, full model number?

Wi-Fi connector / booster, again full model number?

"Even when I change source still getting the same thing."

What source to what source?

"Tried both sockets on the side of the telly."

Tried what in what sockets?

Telly is a 39180SM FHD LED TV
USB Dongle
2 x USB ports on the side of the telly
No 1 x HDMI port on back of telly
No. 2 x HDMI port on back of telly


On remote there is a source button that comes up with a list of TV, HDMI 1, 2, Ext. When I press the youtube button on the remote then that's when I get no network connection. Ta.

Again:

USB dongle, full model number?

Sorry. Told you not technical. USB dongle is a VEZZY2000 802.11 2 x 2 that's all that is on it. Connected the end of the cable that is part of the booster that the dongle fits into either of the 2 USB ports on the telly. Anthing else I'm struggling.

Was it supplied with the TV or did you source it elsewhere?

Yes. If you want help, no if you don't, your choice!

The TV and associated parts came from friends and it worked for them.

Sounds like you are missing a step.

After you plug the dongle into the TV, you need to go into the MENU on the TV and find NETWORK SETTINGS.

Then you should be able to set up the WIFI connection and put your password in.

THEN try the YouTube button.

In that case follow lammy82's post.

But reading the reviews on Amazon for a four year old TV , I doubt YouTube will still work as it has been updated several times over the years and I doubt Digihome offered any updates for it..
