Can I use this to connect my smart tv to my computer modem? Is this the correct cable? Thanks

No... But you can do it wirelessly. Call your internet provider to turn on WiFi. then your phone will be connected to the Internet .

I use it to connect my computer to the router. As long as your smart TV accepts ethernet cords you're good to go.

I looked at an owners manual online. There is no picture of the connection for me to look at to know if it is the correct cable.

HelloThank you for the question. This item is used for dish network equipment. It is probably compatible, but sold to connect dish network equipment to the Internet. I don't believe this is what you need. Best regards

No, it won't work. I used this to interface a TV with a cable box. You need the HDMI for the TV if equipped, and a USB for the computer. If it were me, I would get a USB to HDMI cable if they make one.

Thanks for the try. I simply wanted to know at what standard the smart TV with its built-in "Smart" connection to the interent communicated with the cable system.

I think for computer to computer connections you need a cat5e "crossover" cable. This one is called a "patch" and is used for modem to computer connections. The wiring is different, so make sure you search for "crossover" cable. There is also a USB Easy Transfer Cable that can be used. These, though, are more expensive than the crossover cables.

Doubt if this will help for your use but I use this to plug an ethernet line (via USB) into my google TV 'box'. I just plugged it in and it worked (no drivers or configuration needed). The google OS apparently sees it as native or the fact it is plugged into USB provides auto conversion from ethernet.

It is a cable type hook-up. My best answer is, "I do not know." However, if there is a Cable-IN and a Cable-OUT I would 'guess' that it is possible. -Or maybe try a cable splitter at the TV. Sorry I can not be better help.

Nope. This is for networking cables only. Ethernet and old school T ring style network cables. Coax (like for your TV) will not fit.

Unfortunately, this cable will not connect your laptop / computer to a TV therefore it will not work, the cables are also designed for component (red, green and blue).

I wouldn't use this cable for anything. It fried my tv. This cable is garbage. Look at all the negative feedback

It is network cable. You can use it for networking, modem to router to computer etc. I would think that you can. It's the standard.

No need. Smart TV most likely has wireless capability. It should connect wirelessly to your network via your extender.

As long as your distance is less than 98 feet from your computer to your TV then this is what you need. This is assuming that your computer and your TV both have HDMI inputs.

@radar363: thank for the information. I kept getting multiple information from vayring sources who should have known the correct response, including the manufacturer of my Television Set. Finally I ordered the cable just to have it on hand when I started setting up and quickly discovered that all but one of my sources was incorrect (and the correct one was NOT the manufacturer of my TV) and I didn't need it at all. Live and learn. But, I appreciate you help. Judi
