    The laptop hotspot is usually only good for other laptops, usually windows devices. If you use an ethernet cable which you plug into your laptop to get internet, I suggest you purchase a regular modem so you can freely move around with your laptop and use your TV. If you use a 3G stick get a 3G router in which you lug in the data card. The Tv cannot connect wirelessly to a laptop virtual hotspot. Also, this may seem dumb, but check if your TV has a wireless card to use WiFI.
