Product is okay

(1) Installation: first course failed. Since TV new, new dongle - what now. Hotline has once hoc to reach and then pushed to the ad provider and router. After I've tried everything there was clear to me there is not. Incidentally amazing how friendly my Telekom Hotline tried to help, and how rude I abservierte the Phillips Hotline. Well.

Solution was simply: SW update on TV. Since the TV is brand new, I had not come out. Thought I update via dongle. No way, the TV is when it is delivered, already obsolete in the SW. Here incompatible with the dongle, although the SW as of April.

(2) After that it was easy. Really made foolproof. Already you are online. One wonders just, I need right now is a SD card because this is queried in the menu. One does not need. Who reinsteckt one described there, but possibly believe his information going on there, because the thing is then reformatted.

(3) Data Rate / Speed: Look to the menu, and there is 4 bar and 65 Mbit. Although my TV 1 floor higher position than the router. So looks quite okay. But wonder what there at all measures. Net rate?

(4) Apps: The feature set of apps I find good. That makes already fun there rumzustöbern. Everyone finds what to his liking. So much I did not expect.

(5) Wireless Performance: faith of the stick is better than its reputation, but not optimal reception. So a straight line on 1st floor I am at least. 6 -7 m away. Via LAN cable can not be solved. Time wireless LAN installation> 15m, not possible. So WLAN trust. On my laptop with no problem. That's why I married well this stick. But I realize disturbs any other wireless part. ... And then the rate varies greatly. In reality, then jerky every film about the library, or about a video about iConcerts.

So better not 2 or 3.Apparatus simultaneously on WLAN, otherwise it will possibly narrow.

Furthermore: The dongle may not hide behind the TV when it hangs on the wall. The performance suffers again. Even the included mini cable helps somewhat. Then you get without additional devices towards a state that everything runs almost problemslos.

(5) Media Connect: So far not tried. A download also was not possible from the Philips server. Will I eh not need high. Faith the request to the network increases then. Therefore I am a little skeptical about the expectation. Really interests me also currently not very. Have any videos on demn PC or so. Will try it for fun.

(6) Price: The current price on Amazon for the stick, I find very okay. A good investment.

Conclusion: Who finds reasonably intelligent WLAN environment, makes nothing wrong with the stick. The Net TV is really fun. Perhaps the user comes with its Wi-Fi at borders, but you have to try really. The service at the Philips hotline is mixed. Actually, you tried immediately rid of unnecessary people. Thus ****
