elgreco Posted February 13, 2022 Report Share Posted February 13, 2022 Hi all, is there a way to get TV stations on a smart TV with only a 3pin 240v connection? We are wanting a TV in our kitchen/diner but have no aerial in there and no virgin media socket in there either. thanks in advance Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Neal Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 Probably a wifi dongle, but I'm sure someone more techy than I will suggest something cleverer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
udderlyoffroad Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 You appear to be asking whether it’s possible to run UHF TV signals over some kind of powerline adapter - Am no electronic engineer, but I would suggest there’s a very good reason such a device doesn’t exist. If you have a good wifi signal strength in your kitchen, and your TV is indeed smart, all the major broadcasters have apps which allow you to watch live TV as well as 'catch up'. It is a bit of a faff as you have to press more buttons to get to where you want. However, and I always make this argument when people ask about trying to get any sort of wireless or powerline solution to work in their house: if it’s your ‘forever’ home, why not just run a cable? It may be a faff initially, but the result will always be better than attempting to go wireless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
