LG Ultra tv
« on: May 09, 2015, 03:37:16 PM »
I need some help here if you please.
The wife just went out and bought an LG  42ub820 smart tv but I have a problem
According to the info booklet I need the right LG dongle to connect to the internet.
I have looked everywhere that I can think of on the web but are unable to find one for my model UB82.
Any help would be appreciated or can I just add an android box ? Good quality but must be able to watch rugby, especially World cup

I don't know for sure but it sounds like it needs a wifi connection which is though a USB port. 

I would try a standard wifi adapter (e.g. dlink).  Or if your wifi router is near your TV, you man be able to use a RJ 45 LAN wire connection.

you are correct, I need to get a dongle through a USB connection
However, reading some of LG dongles on ebay etc, not all are compatable with all tvs !
I could as you suggest move the router closer to the tv and get a connection that way, thank you

According to this

It has wifi on board

Has a WiFi Connection
Like most of the other latest comparable spec LED displays, the 42UB820 has a WiFi connection.

Edit: I have been searching all over LG, but I can't find the 42UB820 but I only can find the 42UB820(T) and the 42UB820(V)

Many thanks for your reply " Iammike ".
Unfortunately according to their instructions I require a dongle but no one seems to sell them here in Thailand or the UK.
Looks like I will have to contact LG direct or hardwire it.

You will need a good internet speed to use an Android box

Hi, I just use my laptop which has a HDMI connection and plug into the HDMI connection on the TV as my TV (Toshiba) said it has wifi but found it difficult to connect, so the easy why was using internet wifi on laptop (im using true vision 18mps, but acutally getting 33mps) and when I want look on tv just plug into TV via HDMI and works great hope this helps
