The TV isn't a "smart" TV?

i guess I need to read the manual I've never owned a "smart" TV, but what I did was turn on the TV, change to HDMI, turn on the HDMI remote and up came icons for Netflix and other streaming sites. I tried to set up a wireless network connection but all I can find on the HDMI setup is for a wired connection. Maybe I'm just plain dumb, but how would I find out if I have a "smart" tv that has wireless capability?

I'm getting back to the pile of paper that came with the trailer. Everything is so new it's a bit overwhelming.

If the TV has Netflix and other app type options on the TV itself then it would be considered a smart TV. I do not have one in my 2015 but I can only go by the OP's description.

Quickest way would be to find out the model of the TV and then search on the Internet. I am assuming that they are still using Samsung TV's. If so you can go to the Menu then look for Network setup. If you have wireless built in it would be listed in this menu. Some models show a wireless option in the menu but it is greyed out and you are unable to select it. In that case the TV does not have it.

I went to Walmart and bought a wireless Blu-Ray player and it works great. Also got an HDMI switch that allows me to switch between Dish Network and Blu-Ray player. Otherwise you are physically changing cables which is almost impossible without pulling the Blu-Ray player out.

We also have a new 28FC. If you have one AC you will find the generator connection up front on the driver side. If you have a 2nd AC there is no front generator hook up provided.
