A6100

I am trying to use the A6100 on my tv and I can’t get it to pick up my NETGEAR router. I have attempted to use the wps without success. Any suggestions would be helpful

       Not a very detailed description of your "my tv".

       Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
    for Documentation.  Get the Product Data Sheet.  Read.  Look for "System
    Requirements".  Does your "my tv" run Windows?  I doubt it.

       I assume that you have some kind of TV or other which has an Ethernet
    port, and you want to connect it wirelessly to your (unspecified) "my
    NETGEAR router".  You might check with the maker of your "my tv", and
    see if it supports any kind of USB wireless-network adapter.  If not,
    then you might shop around for a wireless bridge, which can connect to
    the Ethernet port on your "my tv", and handle the wireless-networking
    function.

       Or run an Ethernet cable between your (unspecified) "my NETGEAR
    router" and your "my tv".  Or get a pair of Powerline gizmos, and use
    them and your house power wiring to emulate an Ethernet cable.
