I'm looking for advice on wirelessly connecting a Toshiba Satellite Pro- C50-A-1E2 to Logik TV (L32HED15)

Anyone know of the right kit I need? i.e Wireless Adaptors, Dongles? etc

Mirror the Laptop as I'm already using an Amazon Fire Stick.

Re: #2

There are tutorials showing you how to mirror Windows OS to your TV using a fire stick.

Your Laptop would have to to be capable of WiDi(Intel) or Miracast.

I have a later model Toshiba and it won't do either, the Wireless Card is not Intel, and it's not Miracast capable.

Therefore you find an external WiFi USB dongle with those capabilities to get it to work.
The Firestick is supposed to be WiDi/Miracast capable so the TV is taken care of.
