Smile Wireless? Laptop to TV?
I know how to connect my laptop to my TV, in order to use the TV as my monitor; but.......

Can I set it up so that this is achieved WIRELESSLY?

Thanks in advance for any help you might provide.

if your tv and laptop have VGA connectors for a computer connection, you could use something like this

these kinds of adapters dont always get the best reviews, so try at your own risk. I have never personally used one.

...........or something like this. Saves you the trouble of having to install extra driver to make USB port work since it's VGA out (which is spare on your laptop) and RCA in (which most TVs have). The wireless unit converts VGA to RCA with no problem (kept simple as both are analogue)

Thumbs up Thanks
Thanks to both respondees....it sounds like using a cable might be the best thing, although I might try the wireless method.

Thanks again.
