Yes, you may refer to the below setup video to install the router:

Or you can refer to the instructions (If you have a cable modem or fiber modem or DSL modem):

I think you may contact with the TV support to seek some suggestions as the internet on the WR841N seems working fine. You may also confirm if your TV can get a valid IP address when plugged into the LAN port of the WR841N, if not, you may try with a static one.

@Kevin_Z 

Thanks for your prompt reply I have used a tp link travel router in the TV box and it works fine.I think the problem may be that I am setting the router up incorrectly eg wrong mode but I'm not sure.Is there a step by step method for setting it up for using the ethernet ports?
