Streaming Panasonic device to hook up to SONIC wireless

[cynthiatom]

I am trying to hook my Panasonic wireless box to my Sonic wireless. I have an non-wireless TV that I am adding a Panasonic box to and can't remember what to do.

A bit more info would be helpful. What sort of Panasonic box? Is this like a Roku or Apple TV, which you'd connect to the TV with an HDMI cable? Generally that's the process, then you turn on the TV, select that input, and follow the on-screen setup directions for connecting the device via WiFi to your Sonic gateway.

Note that WiFi settings are printed on the label on the left side of the Sonic gateway, so refer to that label for the SSID (network name) and access code.

You need to plug the TV into a WiFi access point that has a "client" mode. Configure the access point on a computer then move it to the TV.

My personal experience is that Panasonic's online services are maintained poorly, both in TV firmware and on the server side. Since you already need external hardware to make the TV work, I recommend a Roku, Apple TV, mini desktop, laptop, etc. connected via HDMI. Borrow a long Ethernet cable to try out the TV's native services to see what you think of it before spending money on a solution.
