Can I connect KDL-40w4500 to DLNA-server with WLAN-USB adapter?

Hi,

Bringing an Ethernet cable from my router to the TV is my last resort, thus I've been trying to use the USB port to connect the TV to a DLNA-server using a WLAN USB-adapter, but can't get this to work. Does anyone know if this is supported?

Other suggestions?

Cheers

Unlikely as it won't have the drivers for the adapter. Tried homeplugs?

Thanks

Thanks. Is there no way to use wireles, i.e. would this TV have drivers for specific USB-WLAN adapters, e.g. those made by Sony (I read something in this direction in this forum)?

I haven't tried homeplugs yet, that could be the next step, but I heard standardization is less than optimal in this field...
