Why won't internet work on my wifi enabled tv

I have a sony kdl 40 nx503 that is wifi enabled but when i plug in the belkin adapter that i usually connect to my pc and try and configure the network i just get the "wireless usb device not found" message

Do i need a special kind of network adapter or am i doing something wrong?

Please help

Correct, because the TV doesn't have the driver database that your PC has, you can't use a traditional PC wireless dongle. Either need to use the Sony Dongle http://www.sony.co.uk/product/tpa-other-tv-accessories/uwa-br100 or grab a pair of homeplugs/powerline connectors

Either way, well worth connecting however you decide to do it.

Thanks
