Thanks, I got that, just wondering how does it connect from the Blu Ray to the TV?

HDMI if your tv has them. If not then component or regular RCAs

There is no HDMI/ or RCA's on the TV, it's too old for that, and it has 2 coxial cables that appear to be coming from the TV. Can't see behind the TV as it's mounted into the overhead.
Maybe this might work?

so as in my article the issue with wifi usage is most campgrounds have limited bandwidth.
We subscribe to unlimited phone and cast it.
The device above would work to get you to hmdi but the picture quality is going to very poor. I as others would recommend new tv

You can buy a decent 32inch smart tv for less than $200. Doing this would eliminate buying a Wi-Fi blue ray player

Your TV would have to be really old not to have any RCA inputs or outputs. (Red, White, Yellow connections) If it is a CRT as opposed to a flat panel then it will not have any HDMI ports. You really should consider replacing it before you invest in streaming the internet to it.
Newer Blu Ray players usually only have three connections, one is Ethernet, one is HDMI, and one digital audio output. I choose to use Blu Rays because my TVS are not smart ones.

Unless you have WiFi booster or unlimited phone data forget it. Campground WiFi is terrible. A smart tv will have internet connections and apps like Netflix.

I've actually been to one campground with good wifi. But, just one. All the rest of the 99.9% of them I've been to, you couldn't even use the campground wifi for web surfing.

The TV came with the coach on 06', not sure, but I think it doesn't have HDMI.

The TVs in my 05 have HDMI.
Are yours LCD/Plasma or CRT (tube)?

How much does it weigh or how deep is the chassis, true clues to what you have![emoji14]

I looked it up, that's a CRT. At the very best you might have component inputs, but that's not going to do you any good in regards to hooking up a streaming box or stick.
