If you just want broadcast channels all you’ll need is an antenna.
@Ignorant nice.
@Ignorant Oh ya, this response deserves 5 stars!
@Ignorant Don’t use a Spam Lite can. Regular Spam gets better reception.

Hmmm, I can see 3 most likely answers:
Sounds like you want to “cast” your Samsung Smart TV to your computer using WiFi.
That’s not how casting works. The Smart TV is designed to receive casting from some other device, like from your computer or from a smartphone. Not send it.
If you want to watch TV on your computer, you need a tuner device. Either a card you install or an external box on your network.
Something like the SiliconDust.com HD HomeRun Scribe Quattro to include DVR (recording) or the Connect Quattro (You can still record on your PC with PlexPass or SD’s DVR software.
You are probably going to get better advice in the forums of a site like cordcutters.com than here.
I am confused. You have mentioned three devices, a smartphone, a smart TV and a computer. You want to cast from what to what?
set your phone as a wifi hot spot then use the apps on your tv to stream internet from your phone.
Wut?
