internet connectivity issues

by nomezd Jun 19, 2010 9:12AM PDT

I purchased a un46c7000 LED TV and samsung usb wireless adapter and am having issues with internet speed connectivity on my new tv. I am able to connect to my wireless router (NETGEAR WNR3500v2 via comcast internet modem) to my PCs at ~10-15mbps and my samsung tv at a mere 180kbps. I know that the tv can accept faster speeds but is not doing it. Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Internet Connectivity Issue also

I just bought the UN46C7000 and had Comcast out here checking everything out because I too can't watch rental movies on VUDU or Cinema Now because the connection speed is only 2-5mbps and I have 22mbps at the WIFI connector going into the TV from my router (Wired). If I disconnect the Cat-5 cable on the back of the TV and connect it directly to my laptop I get 22mbps. Connect it back to the TV and run the InternetTV test I get 2-5mbps. What is up with that? Called Bestbuy - no clue, called samsung support -no clue, they want a local home theater electronics contractor to come out to the house (Oh great another appointment). Anyone have a clue why the eithernet card on this TV is so slow? Any Settings I missed? I got a feeling this one is going back.
