Belkin Smart TV Link

IGNORE MESSAGE, figured it out, my stupidity, of course as far as the TV is concerned its a WIRED connection not WIRELESS.......doh!

Hi, hope someone out there can help.

I have just purchased a Bravia KDL-40EX723. As my router is some distance away, and after some online research I purchased a Belkin Universal Wireless Smart TC HDTV Adapters. It appeared that the SONY dongle wouldn't be powerful enough, from the comments online.

I have connected the Belkin to my network as instructed, and have now plugged it into USB and LAN on back of TV. When setting up on TV I get the message -

"Wireless USB device not found. Insert a compatible wireless device"

So, is the Belkin not compatible with SONY, despite it being advertised as compatible with all TV's? As Dixons offer the Belkin as part of a bundle with the EX723, I find this hard to believe.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong, have rang Belkin who say its a SONY problem, sadly SONY's tele support isnt available at weekend!

I have updated the tv's latest Firmware update this morning, so its not that

Thanks

I have never seen one of those before. Is the power light on the device? I wonder if the USB port is supplying enough power. Also, if you have another USB port on the TV, try that instead.
