Wifi direct missing from applications on KDL40EX723

I enjoyed the wifi direct facility on my KDL40EX723 but for some reason it has completely disappeared from applications from the home menu.

I've tried factory reset but it's still not there ... Any ideas??

Hi there

Thats totally weird  I am assuming that you have the Wifi Dongle (UWA-BR100) connected?. If so try the following:

1. Turn TV Off
2. Unplug the dongle
3. Turn TV On again and connect the dongle back in (using top USB port)
4. Also best to ensure that you have the latest firmware updates installed

Hope this assists.

My understanding is that you don't need the dongle?? The wifi direct is built in ?

My tv is wired into my router.

Hi there

This confirms that you do need the UWA-BR100 dongle:

Thanks. I replaced my dongle with wire a while ago due to performance issues..... That'll explain why then, Many Thanks!
