The fact you’re better than LG customer service is blowing my mind. Thank you so much man. Soon as I plugged it in it started updating which let me know it worked.
I was very skeptical that this would fix my connection problem, because I had this TV for 3+ years and hadn't had any problems before. Then suddenly my connection would drop or I just couldn't connect at all (would show no available networks). This started occurring every time I tried to stream something. But after watching this video, I took the back off the TV, and sure enough all the wires that he shows had big crimps in them. I straightened them the best I could and (knock on wood) I haven't had any issues since. Amazing hack. Thank you!
This is crazy but THIS WORKED. I have a LG 55" tv and could not get the Wifi past the Not Connected stage. I spent a total of 5 hours on the phone with LG Lifes Good, Netflix and Spectrum and got no where. Searched the heck out of the internet only to come up with nothing. Came across this video and while I was reluctant to pull the back off the tv thinking there is no way a bent wire can actually be the problem, I did it and found the bent wire. Straightened it out and BOOM the TV found my wifi connection. I cant thank you enough (neither can my wife) This was a huge level of frustration you solved for me. Thanks SO much.
Sitting here at my inlaws listening to my MIL complain about her smart TV that isn't smart... Found this video, grabbed a screwdriver, and now it is working again. Thank you!
Y'all, this actually works! My husband did NOT want to take the TV off the wall but I talked him into it. We un-crimped the wires and now the wifi works. Thank you S P F!
Man. This worked like magic. After trying everything over the last 2 years, I barely touched the cables in the back and it started working again. Amaaaazing.
If anyone is contemplating doing this or getting a new TV, DO THIS!!! I just did about 5 minutes ago and so far so good. Longest my TV has stayed connected in months, thank you thank you thank you!!!!! My advice is to use a flat head screw driver to pry open the back of the TV (actually way harder than it seems), and also use knife or box opener to remove tape that tapes the wires together, causing them to bend.
IT WORKED!!!! We tried everything, about to give up and buy a new TV. Decided to give it a try and BINGO! Connected to WiFi immediately! We could hardly believe it, great detailed instructions and video, can't thank you enough for sharing it!! Bent ribbon cables! God bless you!
2022 and this vid is still helping out. Just spent 2 hrs trying to figure out why my parent's TV isn't picking up the wifi and this vid was top of my search so I tried it out and thank goodness it worked. They were ready to buy a new TV. You saved them some money good sir. Thanks.
Thank you so much for this video. I’ve had my LG 55” for a couple years and over time the WiFi connection got increasingly worse. I switched WiFi providers, increased my speed, but the problem persisted. Last night I decided to search what UA-cam had to offer by way of solutions and I ran across your video and 1 more like it. Between the two of you, I fixed my issue in 15 mins and walah...no more WiFi hiccups. Thank you so much for this post. LG manufacturers ought to be ashamed for this. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
LG is disgusting… used to love the brand but NEVER again. The fact that they tell us to bring receipt and take it to their dealer instead of walking us through how to fix this. They are aware of this universal malfunction. Ban LG!!!!
I watched your video and thought to myself yeah right... not gonna fix my problem.. but I had nothing to lose... I have had wifi and connection problems with this tv since I bought it. They have been on and off and it sometimes works sometimes doesn't. I didn't think that this would fix it at all. As soon as I straightened the wires and powered the tv back on everything loaded instantly. I have always had a loading bar... always. Any skeptical people out there that own LG definitely try this fix.... Amazed 👏.... thank you so much for making this video..... you saved me $1000 bucks. I don't believe lg would have ever fixed it. Your the man!!!!
This was the most useful UA-cam video of my entire life. THANKS!!! I smoothed out all the wires and was shocked that it worked. Was prepared to buy a new TV tomorrow.
I ain’t even gay but you about to get a smooch for this one. Two years of the connection being absolutely shat fixed with 30 seconds of a video. Thank you
We have been wrestling with the Wifi disconnection issue for months, but now it was getting impossible to connect at all. We tried all the other options suggested by LG (unplugging, rebooting Wifi, etc.) but nothing worked satisfactorily. We were afraid to attempt taking the TV off our wall and taking the back of the TV off as we had read about, but your video was very easy to see, understand taking away our fear. So - we did it - and it works!! Thank you so much!
I'm floored...I can't believe this TV...I did just as you said man. Pulled off the back flattened out cables and unplugged, very carefully the cable from the main board to the wifi module. Reconnected it and put all back together works like a champ! Thank you!
I tried fixing the intermitted WIFI/Eithernet connection problem with all instructions from LG support but no one works. I followed this instruction and it works now! Super! Thanks!!!
YOU MY FRIEND ARE A LIFE SAVER! I’ve had this tv for 3+ years! Never could get WiFi on it only lan cable connection. Today we went and bought a new Samsung for our living room and moves this LG to the kitchen… decided to give it one more shot on trying to trouble shoot it and stumbled across your video! Needless to say IT WORKED! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I've had a problem with this TV for around 3 years that would never connect to Wi-Fi. I just came across this video and it worked like a charm made my whole month better.
IT WORKS!!!! IT WORKS!!! It frickin' works! Thank you for much Sir for figuring this trick out, for putting it on here and explaining it a way us dumb folks can understand. Dang, man, thanks so much! Saved me a ton of money, further strengthened my faith in homemade ingenuity. Thanks again Sir.
dude the last few months I’ve been having wifi problems and tried EVERY solution under the sun and this one is the right one!! thank you so much for making this video!!
Thank you! This really works. I’m a 70 yr old woman and easily managed to follow your instructions. Brilliant… you just saved me the price of a new tv 👏👏👏😀
I spent 3 hours trying to fix this issue, resetting the router, manually entering network names, uplugging the TV, factory resetting the TV and so on. After finding this video, it took me just over 5 minutes to fix this issue. Thanks!
Nothing worse than having your wifi turn off in the middle of a PPV fight! This is the real fix!!! Tried that location BS and nothing, tried this and BOOM!!! Works works works!!! I did it on my 70” tv so it was a little different but just follow the wires right under the LAN port! Thank you so much!!! God bless!
After countless videos on trying to figure out what’s wrong with my tv I finally found the one . Thank you so much . Haven’t had a fully functioning smart tv the last few years .
Thank you so much for this video my family was thinking of buying a new tv because there were so many misleading videos. My tv now works perfectly thanks to this guy.
Holy shit! I had given up on my tv honestly with all the other suggested fixes that didn't work until I found this video and thought aaahh what the hell why not. I opened the TV which gave me childhood flashbacks to when I'd change the fuse from our boxed TV set then. Did exactly what was suggested then bammm. I'm all connected now. Thanks bro.
Months of my tv and remote barley working and shows getting cut off constantly. I was going to go buy a new TV and saw this video. I was skeptical but said whats to lose. Low and behold this worked perfectly. You saved me about $800. Thanks bro.
Bro I was about 6sec. till self-destruct and I was tossing the TV. Watched 12 videos all telling me what I know. Then I came across your video and I herd something I haven't heard from the other videos , "take the back cover off." I knew I was gonna get somewhere now! Flatten the ribbon wire out to have a continuous flow to it. BAM! Found my Network. Thanks dude!
Thanks so much for this! This is literally the ONLY video I’ve found that had the same issues as my tv. Right before this I tried contacting customer support and nothing they suggested worked and they were tryna get me to pay someone to repair it. Your video was short, straight to the point and literally took me a few minutes to fully fix the issue without me having to pay an arm an leg having someone else fix. I feel like Bob the Builder right now lol.
I had to do this same this except I didn't have to straighten out the wires, I just reconnected the wifi cable into the motherboard. Unplug it then plug it back in and it worked when I started it back up, almost instantly.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I've had so many issues trying to connect my LG TV to the wifi, and I'd tried everything with turning off the TV, turning off the wifi, doing a factory reset... the lot and then taking the back off and straightening the cables has worked :) your a life saver!
Our WiFi hasn't worked for so long we assumed it was broken. We came across this video and gave it a try. It worked!! Thank you so much for the help! 👏👍
You’re a god among men! If you’ve tried the unplug and re plug, and factory resetting your tv, you’ll be happy to be able to input all your passwords again after opening it up and unkinking the Wi-Fi wires to get it working again, you’re great, thank you for the tutorial 😎✌🏼
Omg Thanks for this video,did it within an hour and finally I have my TV back,Am a mom of 2 and when the kids went to bed I did it all alone 😀.Hubby was soo overwhelmed when he came to see av fixed it.God bless you
This was perfect I’ve been so frustrated for two months trying to connect. We upgraded our Wi-Fi thinking that would help. We considered buying another TV brand, LG customer support was joke. I saw your video, was a little skeptical about taking the back off. Once I took it off saw the wire, straightened them out. Gave a it a try and every WiFi in the neighborhood came up. Thank you so much for this video. I kept the back of the TV off so it won’t been the wires again.
You are a genius. I tried everything to fix the issue and didn’t work. To be honest I was very skeptical to try this fix, but I tried and it works. Thanks a lot.
I had the same issue with WiFi and Screen Share issues. I fixed the wires as you instructed, updated the TV a to my amazement, everything works fine. Thank you so much for sharing and shame on you LG for knowing the flaw so we can buy TVs after a few years.
Dude you really saved my tv time. We went through so many different routers and tv service that I can’t even keep count. Finally I decided to search n came across ur video. Problem solve. Thanks a mill.
Dude you’re a life saver. I had this TV in my sons room and this was the only thing that work. The cables were super bent once I put straight them out it worked.
WOW - You are the man. I was messing with this TV for weeks and tried every setting possible. I didn't want to open it up but tried everything else. This fix works great.. TV works like new. THANK YOU.
My tv has been like this for over 3 years. I have a LG webos tv uj6300 and i heard it was several $100 to get it repaired. I gave up on the Tv until I saw this video. It's a life saver and actually worked. The wires where it connected were still bent but the ones I fixed restored wifi. It's just ridiculous and thats that I had to take off the complete back casing. Thank you good sir. Im glad they made you make a video.
thank you my wireless wifi its already working thank you thank you.because almost 2 years my lg smart tv not searching any wifi connection now its done because i watch your video thanks bro🙏🙏
YOU FIXED IT. That was it. I unbent the cables, and now my 55" LG OLED works flawlessly. It was so bad my remote couldn't even connect because both WiFi and Bluetooth was borked. Now both are working again. THANK YOU.
Thanks for this video. I managed to fix my lg sk8100pla. It actually fixed three issues with my LG smart tv. 1. the sound used to drop out when watching videos via my usb hard drive. 2. I can now connect to the tv by wifi. 3. My remote control on screen pointer is no longer disconnecting.
Dude, you helped fix my TV. Ive checked multiple different videos and nothing worked and came across yours and decided why not. I straightened(flattened) the two different connections and it finally connected after years of trying to figure this out(UH6100). The one thing I noticed was how sloppy the wires were put in running all over eachother unnecessarily in weird directions. Thank you so much man!
Unfortunately for me none of the countless software fixes worked, but FORTUNATELY for me YOU MADE THIS VIDEO! I unplugged and replugged each end of the wifi hardware cables and wala, I'm up n running! THANK YOU!!
Thank you so much for this. My situation was exactly the same as yours, I used Ethernet connection, due to the Wi-Fi issues, until I pulled the cable out and the port came with it. Found your video and fixed in minutes, it’s so simple that anyone could do it.
Alright to make this short it my issue is resolved thanks to this man right here. I can't believe that something so obvious was avoided by others but thank you again for this amazing video. Truly saved me the hassle of spending time on watching these videos left and right. Even though this was a year ago, saved my life and LG tv as well.
This started happening to my TV earlier this week and after looking up a bunch of methods (turning off quick start, changing your location, reset to initial settings) this was the only method that worked for me. Thanks a bunch!
The most useful video to me so far. I got it fixed myself in 10m. The LG customer service is bulshit, they came to check the TV once, without open the TV to check what happened inside, and then few days after the call and tell me that I have to replace the wifi system which cost 32$.
Since I'm a 71 year old woman, I better find a man to help me lift my 65 inch TV off the wall in order to be able to do what you just showed. Great video. Wish you lived next door! 5:31
Ok Hopefully This Will Help Others As Well. So Before I Go Into a Long Intro (Like Articles You Click On lol) IT WORKED!!! Now For The Details. First Off Thank You So Much SPF For The Great Simple Detail Even Right Down To The Little Screw by The Inputs. I Have The 2017 LGTV 65 inch UJ6300 and It Worked as You Said. So For Anyone Thinking Like I Did (oh lawd I have to take off the back and before that i have move it from its spot of perfection or off the wall lol) Its Not Bad at All. I Had My Wife Help Me Move It To The Table So It Can Lay Flat and Removed The Screws... Please Note That With Our TV I Had To Remove The Stands To Remove The Back. Once That Was Done I Straightened Out The Wires Like You Said (after removing that little blue ribbon) Did The Air Can For Dust in Little Places, Made Sure None of The Wires Were In The Way When Replacing The Back and Did a Quick Check To See if it Worked Before Putting The Screws Back in and It Conneted To The WIFI Instantly! So WOW After a Year or More With The Wifi Not Working (Saying Thats Its Off and You Cant Turn It On) This Little Trick Worked. I've Read Several Times To Try This But I Was Like Maaaaan If I Jack Something Up Then Its Really Done Because At Least The TV Would Work With The Ethernet...Well That Started Going Out Too. But Now Thanks To Your Quick Detail, Apps Have Never Loaded So Fast... i.e. We Know That Netflix and UA-camTV even Disney Plus Use a lot of Data but This Was an Easy Fix. Believe Me We Were Ready To Head Out The Door After Doing Research on a New TV between Samsung or Another LG But Decided To Try One More Search of This Trick and Your Video Came Up First and Badabing...I Am Golden Lol. Thank You Again For Posting This!! Ice
Don’t know if you will checked this. But you’re a life savor i was so freaking frustrated. Thx.. hopefully it will stay connected.. save tons of money don’t have to buy another tv.. Thank God!!
Dude! You just saved my TV AND best of all I, the wife, fixed hubby’s tv! You made me look like a hero. Now I don’t have to let him justify a new one. ;)
I was having this same issue starting yesterday. It got worse the more I tried to stay connected. I did what you showed in this video. The only other thing I did was remove the connector from the wifi module and clean the connections as well as un kicking the wires. So far so good! Thanks for this!
Untangling my wifi routers cable just like you did fixed my issue. Thanks for the information ! My sister sold me the tv since she wasn’t able to connect to wifi. Came across your video and now it’s functioning well ! Thanks 🙏
Thanks so much for this video. I’ve been having WiFi issues for a couple years and have been using an Ethernet connection. I decided today to take my tv off the wall and try your steps. Immediate fix!
So this was happening to me and has been for about a year, even when I was connecting through Ethernet was still connecting and disconnected. I rang LG and they said £149 for the repair. I’ve just done this literally took me 10min and now it’s fully working!!! Thank you sooo much! 🎉
Great video and fixed my problem o a 5 yr. old 65 inch. I couldn't believe that it was so simple. Couple of hints. Do take the legs off before taking off the back. Mine refused to release until I removed the legs and then it was totally free. The modem module is located at the very bottom (center) of the tv. It's covered with a plastic cover. Take the cover off to get a good look at the crimps in the ribbon cable. I am really in awe of this quick fix. Thank you Edward for making it. It probably saved me $200 + for a service call and part which was not needed.
Thought your solution was lunacy but after trying every other "fix," I told my gf that I'd give yours a try and if it doesn't work then it's time for a new TV. 24 screws later and we are back in business! No idea how you figured out this solution but very glad you did! Liked, commented and subscribed.
3 year old video, BUT IT FUCKING WORKED!!! Pulled the back off. The Wi-Fi wires were taped very tightly together with this hard blue tape. The wires were bent at the Wi-Fi plug. I used precision scissors to carefully cut the blue tape off. Once the wires were separated I smoothed them out. I put everything back together and IT FUCKING WORKED! HOLY SHIT! You made me a happy man. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Thanks so much.Before I bought the wifi card for 50 bucks I did what you said.You saved this old firefighter it works great plus the wife of 50 yrs thinks I'm a genius let's not tell her it was you ok.
The fact you’re better than LG customer service is blowing my mind. Thank you so much man. Soon as I plugged it in it started updating which let me know it worked.

You are a genius. I tried everything to fix the issue and didn’t work. To be honest I was very skeptical to try this fix, but I tried and it works. Thanks a lot.
I had the same issue with WiFi and Screen Share issues. I fixed the wires as you instructed, updated the TV a to my amazement, everything works fine. Thank you so much for sharing and shame on you LG for knowing the flaw so we can buy TVs after a few years.
Dude you really saved my tv time. We went through so many different routers and tv service that I can’t even keep count. Finally I decided to search n came across ur video. Problem solve. Thanks a mill.
This absolutely worked. I followed the instructions all the way and my TV connected to the internet with no issues.
Dude you’re a life saver. I had this TV in my sons room and this was the only thing that work. The cables were super bent once I put straight them out it worked.
WOW - You are the man. I was messing with this TV for weeks and tried every setting possible. I didn't want to open it up but tried everything else. This fix works great.. TV works like new. THANK YOU.
Every other video didn't work and I was really resistant to open the back of my tv but it truly is the fix. THANKS A MILLION
My tv has been like this for over 3 years. I have a LG webos tv uj6300 and i heard it was several $100 to get it repaired. I gave up on the Tv until I saw this video. It's a life saver and actually worked. The wires where it connected were still bent but the ones I fixed restored wifi. It's just ridiculous and thats that I had to take off the complete back casing. Thank you good sir. Im glad they made you make a video.
This is some BS. Taking the TV apart for remedy WIFI! Holy crap. Nice craftsmanship LG.
just picked up a free 65" LG with no wifi issue...This fixed the problem....15 minutes!!!! Thanks for the video!!!
thank you my wireless wifi its already working thank you thank you.because almost 2 years my lg smart tv not searching any wifi connection now its done because i watch your video thanks bro🙏🙏
3 years later and this video helped me
Thank you brother ❤
YOU FIXED IT. That was it. I unbent the cables, and now my 55" LG OLED works flawlessly. It was so bad my remote couldn't even connect because both WiFi and Bluetooth was borked. Now both are working again. THANK YOU.
Thanks for this video. I managed to fix my lg sk8100pla. It actually fixed three issues with my LG smart tv. 1. the sound used to drop out when watching videos via my usb hard drive. 2. I can now connect to the tv by wifi. 3. My remote control on screen pointer is no longer disconnecting.
Thank you!!! I fought all day trying to fix my tv, and had it fixed 10 minutes after watching this video!!!
In the middle of June of 2022 and this thing saved my TV. You're genius Sir.!!
Dude, you helped fix my TV. Ive checked multiple different videos and nothing worked and came across yours and decided why not. I straightened(flattened) the two different connections and it finally connected after years of trying to figure this out(UH6100). The one thing I noticed was how sloppy the wires were put in running all over eachother unnecessarily in weird directions. Thank you so much man!
This video helped me!! I haven’t used my tv in months and now I can finally enjoy it thanks to this guy.
Hi so your tv it's work now or not
Unfortunately for me none of the countless software fixes worked, but FORTUNATELY for me YOU MADE THIS VIDEO! I unplugged and replugged each end of the wifi hardware cables and wala, I'm up n running! THANK YOU!!
You just fixed my 75" LG WIFI problem. This would have cost me at least $100 to fix!
Thanks so much!
Thank you so much for this. My situation was exactly the same as yours, I used Ethernet connection, due to the Wi-Fi issues, until I pulled the cable out and the port came with it. Found your video and fixed in minutes, it’s so simple that anyone could do it.
Thanks a bunch. Super easy to follow, just fixed my downstairs LG and now I'll be even quicker on the upstairs one!
Alright to make this short it my issue is resolved thanks to this man right here. I can't believe that something so obvious was avoided by others but thank you again for this amazing video. Truly saved me the hassle of spending time on watching these videos left and right. Even though this was a year ago, saved my life and LG tv as well.
This started happening to my TV earlier this week and after looking up a bunch of methods (turning off quick start, changing your location, reset to initial settings) this was the only method that worked for me. Thanks a bunch!
The most useful video to me so far. I got it fixed myself in 10m.
The LG customer service is bulshit, they came to check the TV once, without open the TV to check what happened inside, and then few days after the call and tell me that I have to replace the wifi system which cost 32$.
Since I'm a 71 year old woman, I better find a man to help me lift my 65 inch TV off the wall in order to be able to do what you just showed. Great video. Wish you lived next door! 5:31
Ok Hopefully This Will Help Others As Well. So Before I Go Into a Long Intro (Like Articles You Click On lol) IT WORKED!!! Now For The Details. First Off Thank You So Much SPF For The Great Simple Detail Even Right Down To The Little Screw by The Inputs. I Have The 2017 LGTV 65 inch UJ6300 and It Worked as You Said. So For Anyone Thinking Like I Did (oh lawd I have to take off the back and before that i have move it from its spot of perfection or off the wall lol) Its Not Bad at All. I Had My Wife Help Me Move It To The Table So It Can Lay Flat and Removed The Screws... Please Note That With Our TV I Had To Remove The Stands To Remove The Back. Once That Was Done I Straightened Out The Wires Like You Said (after removing that little blue ribbon) Did The Air Can For Dust in Little Places, Made Sure None of The Wires Were In The Way When Replacing The Back and Did a Quick Check To See if it Worked Before Putting The Screws Back in and It Conneted To The WIFI Instantly! So WOW After a Year or More With The Wifi Not Working (Saying Thats Its Off and You Cant Turn It On) This Little Trick Worked. I've Read Several Times To Try This But I Was Like Maaaaan If I Jack Something Up Then Its Really Done Because At Least The TV Would Work With The Ethernet...Well That Started Going Out Too. But Now Thanks To Your Quick Detail, Apps Have Never Loaded So Fast... i.e. We Know That Netflix and UA-camTV even Disney Plus Use a lot of Data but This Was an Easy Fix. Believe Me We Were Ready To Head Out The Door After Doing Research on a New TV between Samsung or Another LG But Decided To Try One More Search of This Trick and Your Video Came Up First and Badabing...I Am Golden Lol. Thank You Again For Posting This!!
Ice
Don’t know if you will checked this. But you’re a life savor i was so freaking frustrated. Thx.. hopefully it will stay connected.. save tons of money don’t have to buy another tv.. Thank God!!
Dude! You just saved my TV AND best of all I, the wife, fixed hubby’s tv! You made me look like a hero. Now I don’t have to let him justify a new one. ;)
I was having this same issue starting yesterday. It got worse the more I tried to stay connected. I did what you showed in this video. The only other thing I did was remove the connector from the wifi module and clean the connections as well as un kicking the wires. So far so good! Thanks for this!
I've been looking for a solution for days... FOR DAYS! thanks for showing us how to fix this. Greatly appreciated 🙏🏻
Untangling my wifi routers cable just like you did fixed my issue. Thanks for the information ! My sister sold me the tv since she wasn’t able to connect to wifi. Came across your video and now it’s functioning well ! Thanks 🙏
Thanks so much for this video. I’ve been having WiFi issues for a couple years and have been using an Ethernet connection. I decided today to take my tv off the wall and try your steps. Immediate fix!
So this was happening to me and has been for about a year, even when I was connecting through Ethernet was still connecting and disconnected. I rang LG and they said £149 for the repair. I’ve just done this literally took me 10min and now it’s fully working!!! Thank you sooo much! 🎉
Great video and fixed my problem o a 5 yr. old 65 inch. I couldn't believe that it was so simple. Couple of hints. Do take the legs off before taking off the back. Mine refused to release until I removed the legs and then it was totally free. The modem module is located at the very bottom (center) of the tv. It's covered with a plastic cover. Take the cover off to get a good look at the crimps in the ribbon cable. I am really in awe of this quick fix. Thank you Edward for making it. It probably saved me $200 + for a service call and part which was not needed.
There are several videos out there on this. I did this yesterday on my 65 inch that is about 7 years old and it worked. Thanks for posting.
Thank you for sharing!
Thought your solution was lunacy but after trying every other "fix," I told my gf that I'd give yours a try and if it doesn't work then it's time for a new TV. 24 screws later and we are back in business! No idea how you figured out this solution but very glad you did! Liked, commented and subscribed.
I appreciate you!
3 year old video, BUT IT FUCKING WORKED!!! Pulled the back off. The Wi-Fi wires were taped very tightly together with this hard blue tape. The wires were bent at the Wi-Fi plug. I used precision scissors to carefully cut the blue tape off. Once the wires were separated I smoothed them out. I put everything back together and IT FUCKING WORKED! HOLY SHIT! You made me a happy man. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Wow it worked. I wonder how many TV s get thrown away because of this. I fixed the wires and back to normal . Awesome thank you so much
This is exactly the issue I was running into. Thanks for making this video. I wonder how many people have just given up on this problem.
Thanks so much.Before I bought the wifi card for 50 bucks I did what you said.You saved this old firefighter it works great plus the wife of 50 yrs thinks I'm a genius let's not tell her it was you ok.
