    Thanks for the answer, looks promising :) I'll try, we'll see what comes out.
    Yes, I suspected that this problem was the result of Samsung's deliberate treatment - ugly practice, Apple-style play.

    Hello.
    I have a Samsung LE40C650 TV. I wanted to run Wi-Fi on it.
    On the Allegro I found such cards:

    http://allegro.pl/adapter-wifi-samsung-wis12abgn-wis12abgnx-300mb-s-i5435445384.html
    http://allegro.pl/adapter-wifi-samsung-300mb-s-wis12abgn-x-wis09abgn-i5769133150.html

    Any of them will work 100%?

    I read the page linked at the beginning of this topic (on SamyGO) and maybe I could handle it, but a bit too much effort. Maybe today these devices from Allegro are 100% "plug & play"? I mean, I plug it in and it works, I don't have to change the firmware, PIDs, drivers, etc.

    I would prefer not to update the firmware on TV, because the one that I have (from 2010) is praised by the most people, and in the newer ones they allegedly spoiled more and more things, blocked and removed options.

    Or maybe a better option will be a router, eg TP-Link TL-WR702N in AP Client mode? Or Air Live N.MINI?
    The TV is a dozen or so meters away from the router and there are walls on the way, so such a USB card may no longer catch, and the router should. My main router is TP-Link TD-W8960N.

    Does it have a chance to work?

    Hello,

    I bought the TP-LINK TL-WR710N nano router, which is practically the same device as you propose. Nice gadget but with my Samsung TV in AP client mode it does not work - I wasted many hours and failed to get the TV to work together. In general, Samsung discouraged me from using its products - the amount of work they put into making life difficult for users of their equipment by various limitations is impressive.

    I have the original Samsung WIS09ABGNX / XEC 2009 wifi adapter - I've been using it for 5 years. He's a bit fickle about signal strength, but of course it works.

    Greetings,
    FL

    And PLC - a better solution than wifi?

    @Hermes: PLC - this is some alternative idea to wifi in this case. The only question is about Samsung TV - I have the impression that it does not like to work with "strange" solutions.

    @Mate k: I tried with the TP-Link DI-524 router

    The PLC TV connection is perceived as wired and it is not possible to turn your nose.
