Hi,

Can someone please explain how to connect a wireless keyboard to a 50" Veon Smart Tv?

Have tried looking for YouTube clips but can't find any for this TV brand.

Really want to go on the internet but can't use the keyboard to type.

Any video links or suggestions please??

Thanks

I actually brought it off Facebook so there is no manual. Maybe I can look up the model and find the manuel. It all works. I'm not a pro at all this technology stuff.

It's a wireless keyboard but I don't know where in the tv settings I need to go to set my keyboard up with it.

Maybe I can enquire at the Warehouse store here in New Zealand and ask about the tv as they usually sell the brand Veon.

Wouldn't it be quicker to look through the setup menu.

I only know of two ways, though there may be more.

1. If your TV has bluetooth then it should be able to pair with a bluetooth keyboard.

2. Wireless keyboards (non-bluetooth) usually come with a wee USB dongle which plugs into a USB port on the TV, and connects with the keyboard.

I have a Logitech K830 (an option 2 keyboard) and it works with everything in my house.

Life is too short to remove USB safely.

I guess the first step is establishing whether it actually supports a keyboard. Just because it's a smart TV means very little.

Clearly without a manual answering that question could be difficult.

Thanks. Yep that's the correct information about it. Still haven't found out how to make the keyboard work with the tv.

Can't see anywhere that says Bluetooth.

There is one part in settings and it only says keyboard. Can't click on it.

I know how to go onto the Internet but need the keyboard to write my password in.

Grrrrrrr sucks.

Don't worry guys. I'll hustle someone to come over and check it out of call the company.

from that I am assuming that your keyboard is bluetooth?

my guess is that the tv will support a wireless keyboard/mouse but we are talking the kind that uses a dongle
eg, try plugging in the keyboard from your computer and see what it does.

The views expressed by me are not necessarily those of my employer
