How to connect Laptop to TV using WiFi

Last response: in Wireless Networking
Share

Hi all,

Ok, so here's what I wanna do... I have a tv with HDMI and RCA inputs. All I want is to be able to connect my laptop display to the tv without any wires at full HD Resolution. Also, be able to use the 'extend desktop' functionality so that I can continue doing my stuff on my laptop and play whatever on the tv screen (the way I can when I connect my laptop to tv using HDMI).

Secondary requirements
To be able to connect my iPad and my Samsung Galaxy S2

Eagerly waiting for your replies. Please ask if u have any questions.

Cheers
- me!

Hi :) 

You CANNOT unless your TV has inbuilt wifi... and you cannot send HD graphics over wifi....thats PRECISELY why Tvs have HDMI ports...

All the best Brett :) 


Hi,
isn't there an apple airplay equivalent for windows? i mean using airplay, you can connect ur devices to stream audio and video to any TV/ music player...

I mean I have a HDMI cable and it gives me very satisfactory results when I connect it to the TV, but I was hoping to get the same results without having to use a wire.. I am sure there must be something to make me happy :??:

There are plenty of us that would love to do this and its possible just not sure how much its going to cost. He should never give answer like he did. If he had his way we would never have gotten anything wireless. Answers in here IMHO should drive things forward and not "If we were meant to fly we would have been born with wings".
