You have said that already.
If you want to say it again, try telling people what the TV is. The make and model.
Does it have an Ethernet socket on the back? Have you plugged the TV into the Powerline plug?
Thank you for the comment, but since I am connected through my router, I would like to have a example of how to send something from my computer to the TV. I did know how to do that at one time, but it has been so long, I just forgot and haven 't found an example of what to do or how to do it. I am sure that with an example it would refresh my mind and would be on my way.
The setup is done so what do I do now?

Not sure what you mean by that.
The first move is to set up the TV to connect to the Internet over the Internet and its wired LAN connection.
Get the TV talking to the outside world and take it from there.
The router, and plugs, won't help there.
As plemans says, the Powerline just connects you to the outside world. What you do after that is down to what you are trying to do. Netgear can't help there. It isn't involved. The TV is the place to look.
I am looking for someon to layout a task that can be done to send something from my computer to the TV. Anything, like send some pictures from my PC to the TV. Sounds simple once the powerline is in place, but tell me how to use it. I have lost the process of doing that task and need a reminder.
Again, the powerline is basically a replacement for a cable. You don't ask the provider of an ethernet cable how to use your computer or your TV. If you want to get movies/video/pictures to your tv from you computer, check with the provider of your TV or they're forums on the best implementation of doing this.
