Configure netgear to my smart tv
I recently bought a samsung link stick to connect my smart tv to the internet wirelessly. I was told my the Netgear support that I will need to configure my netgear router to connect to my television...
I don't know what Netgear support told you. You should not have to open any ports in order to access the Internet.
I found these instructions on eHow (link). It looks pretty straightforward. Use the menu on your TV to join your Wi-Fi network and enter the Wi-Fi password. That should be all that is necessary.
You are very incorrect, you may need to open ports to acess the internet, reasons why XBOX and Ps4 needs ports to be opened when they cant acess the internet.,
