TV does not find Wi-Fi what to do? du ducktessa
WLAN is only temporarily because of DHCP? Ch Charles27
Does my LG TV SJ800V have a network problem? Co CongoUzbekistan6
I have a question… Technology is not my field at all. My wireless router is in the living room and my room is quite far away. There's a TV in my room and I'd love to watch Netflix there. But I need a LAN cable to connect to the WLAN, right? And so I do not have to pull the cable through the whole house, I would like to attach a wireless amplifier and connect the cable to the amplifier. Is that possible? Is that even possible?
I would be very happy to receive an answer!
Yes.
There are repeaters which have an RJ-45 connection. So you can simply connect a network cable and then a device which itself can't be connected via Wi-Fi.
As an an example:

TP-Link RE200 WLAN Repeater (433Mbps 5GHz, 300Mbps 2.4GHz Dual WLAN AC + N
There are also other devices which have such a function. I use the TP-Link Repeater myself and am very satisfied with it.
Thank you in advance for your answer… Very helpful! 😊
And if I now buy this repeater and use it, he strengthens my wireless in the back of the house, where my TV is synonymous. And then I need a LAN cable to connect TV and repeaters, yes?
Yes, that is possible with many wireless repeaters, the main thing of the wireless repeater has a LAN port and still reasonably good reception signal from the router.
So preferably increased half way between Routers and your room use the repeater. Then you can connect with a longer LAN cable (up to 100m is possible, LAN cables are not expensive) the Smart TV with the LAN port of the repeater.
AVM calls it also WLAN bridge, explained here:
Yes, the repeater amplifies the WLAN signal where it is plugged into the socket.
Normally you should place a repeater so that it is between the router and the device which should be connected to Wi-Fi. But: With you it concerns the connection by cable → thus in the proximity of this device place.
Of course, the WLAN signal from the router must still be able to be received well there, otherwise you will have a break in the data transmission.
And one more thing: Just add a so-called "patch cable" to the shopping cart if you do not have any more lying around.
Basically, that works. If the connection between repeaters (in this case actually a WLAN bridge), but bad, the TV quality will be lousy.
This is not due to "bad" hardware; Radio technology has its physical limits. Unfortunately this is often forgotten.
