never give your smart TV the wifi password or a connection to a 100/1000Mbps Ethernet port that will give it a DHCP address.


Or a modern hdmi cable as they have ethernet?


I'm aware HDMI can carry it, but how many people are plugging their TVs into things that issue them dhcp leases, and act as a gateway/router for a path to the internet? Probably some, it seems like a feature that comcast or others would build into cable boxes, but not many (yet).
