Surely someone should be able to offer some assistance here as there appear to be so many experts on this site.

I'm not a self-proclaimed expert but it seems to me Rocking will need a Wifi device to transmit the picture from from his Wireless router to his TV (I take it the TV isn't WiFi enabled already). This could be anything from a Laptop PC working as a set top box, Android Box or Roku Box and the like... This avoids use of too many cables
So it's
1 Internet to Router to
2. Wifi device with HDMI (I take it the TV has HDMI) if not there are other options
3. Cable from Wifi Device to TV.
Need more info of course but connecting over WiFi is a doddle as long as the Wifi is in range and even then things can be done....

We have a 'powerline adapter starter kit'. Bought this in uk but perhaps they are available here in the computer shops. It is - TP-LINK Model number TL-PA411KIT. Had it a while so there may be a more up-to-date model. It uses the electric cables in your walls to take the signal from your router to another room. If you google it or visit www/tp-link.com you may get a better explanation. Easy to set up - we did so it must be!!!

Yes they have them here, got mine through Multimax but I've also seen them in Ardinc.

No, going to show responses to a friend who understands technical harden, but looking at the above should be able to work. Xx
