“Can I use Netgear Push2TV to connect my HDTV to my Toshiba All in One computer as a second monitor I have a Toshiba All in One computer that has HDMI in but no out. The TV has an HDMI port (I just purchased both). I am told I can't use the HDMI connection to make the TV a second monitor because I don't have HDMI out. My computer has Intel WiDi and I am wondering if I use the Netgear Push2TV if it will make my TV the second monitor I want. Also, can I use the Windows 8.1 extended screen mode or will I only be able to duplicate the screen? Thank you, I appreciate your time.”

Does your Toshiba All In One have WiDi? Even if it does, from my test, Push2TV only mirrors your screen. You will not be able to "extend" your desktop by using this device.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You plug the push2tv adapter into the TV, not the computer. If your computer has widi then it will work fine. I haven't tried seeing if I can use it as a second monitor though. I only use it to duplicate my screen
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The HDMI is only for connecting the Push2TV to your TV. The Push2TV will make your TV act like a second monitor. You can extend the screen, duplicate screen, and/or use just the TV as the main screen.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can setup your TV as a second monitor but only wirelessly. Meaning when though connect push to tv you can setup your computer with extended screen mode and project a movie on tv and use your computer for surfing internet. I do this setup all the time.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.if you have intel WIDI, then you should be able to connect to this. And there should be different display options, not just duplicate screen. We have intel WIDI on our laptop, and we have been able to use it for what you are asking. but, we have had all kinds of issues with the WIDI. i dont know if it is our laptop, but sometimes the software just "breaks" and it wont even open up, and you try and download it again and it doesnt work properly. again, not sure if it is just us, if we have an older version or something. our laptop is about 5 years old.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you can use it. If the device support intel widi the netgear push2tv is the guy for that. Mine work like champs. Good luck.
