There is no such thing as a router with an hdmi connection. It would either be wifi or ethernet cable.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You still need service provider and the modem to get internet. Router alone doesnt provide any service just broadcasts wifi name. You cannot connect the router with hdmi cable.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.HDMI is used for video, not data. You could use an Ethernet cable to connect to the tv but you still need an internet service provider.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There are ways to connect your TV to the internet, provided it is a "smart" TV or can connect to your router.. If you do not have a "smart" TV it will require the use of a alternate connection source such as an Xbox or PS4 console that can can connect to the internet and stream media to your TV's HDMI connections. Both of the above conditions will still need the FiOS or Cable ONT (outside network terminus) box that can provide an ethernet connection (CAT5 / CAT6) to your router's location in your residence. If the current hardware (supplied by your FiOS or Cable company) uses a COAX cable (RG6) the configuration of the supplied router/modem device will need to allow this Nighthawk to take over connections and provide your home's devices with connectivity. This is often referred to as "bridging" or "bridge mode" and usually requires the assistance of the ISP support technicians, which they may not supply willingly as it cuts into their profit margins to do so. Good luck. CB
