| Author: STEVE - See all my revi.. | I could not find it locally in any store. Found it through Amazon at a very good price. Plugged it into my new TV and established a wireless connection. Its original placement at the back of the set and within a wooden cabinet did not allow for signal reception. Used the dock that came with the product and placed it unobtrusively in front of cabinet and TV and had instant reception. | 10 | |

| Author: Larry K. (San Jose, CA U.. | I got this to go along with my TCL42E50. It would have been nice if it had been built in, but if one wants it is available in a higher priced TV. This review will not rate it on that basis.I installed directly into the USB port, did not use the stand. In my configuration that works best, though I noted that it partially blocks the other USB port and can also interfere with the SD card slot. Signal strength is 4 bars.In order to get it to recognize and connect to the wireless network, I had to permanently disable two security settings...Originally they were:1.) SSID broadcast DISabled.2.) MAC filtering ENabled.Now,1.) SSID broadcast is ENabled.2.) MAC filtering is DISabled.This is unfortunate as I prefer the added security of the previous settings.My other gadgets worked fine without SSID broadcast and with MAC filtering, but not this.Installing the WiFi adapter allowed me to use the IOS... | 12 | |
