(ah, I have just checked and it is a Thomson SpeedTouch 585v6 - guess that will be ok for setting up a bridge connection to my existing wireless network once I find out how to set it up?) I also have another (old) router and I did think about setting up a bridge connection and then putting an ethernet connection between the second router and the tv but will have to get the (enormous !!) Panasonic manual out again and read up how to set up the second router for an ethernet connection. I shall get the Netgear Wifi adaptor and give it a try but of course I now understand that I will not get the speed of the n network but the speed of my PN b/g network so I will have to see how that goes when I get the adaptor. Thanks very much all of you for those very comprehensive replies. they work better in these sorts of situation. I live in an old house with thick walls and I see from some of the router "posts" in the forum that some router/modems are "more powerful" / i.e. I would be grateful for some advice before I purchase the adaptor and a new router/modem. Note that I will probably be using the Netgear WNDA3100 (which must be v2 version to work in the Viera TV) as this appears to be compatible with the Panasonic system (Panasonic do not have any Panasonic adaptors in stock). What would be the best (reasonably priced and probably Netgear) Router/Modem to buy to replace the PN supplied 587v7 and will that give me any problems working with Plusnet (Value) or would it be simple to setup using the PN supplied info? Can I assume that the Wireless 802.11n type adaptor (which fits in the USB socket of the TV) will not work to the 802.11b/g version in my Thomson 587v7 router/modem?Ģ. I see that my Thomson TG585 v7 as supplied by Plusnet shows that it is 2.4 GHz 802.11b/g ie NOT Wireless N.802.11nġ. In order for Viera Cast to work, the TV has to have either a wired ethernet connection to the internet (which I can't use because of location of TV/Modem ) or a wireless connection via a USB WiFi adaptor via my home router which uses 2.4 GHz 802.11n draft specification adapter.
