I only use the internet on it to update the firmware.
You don’t even need to do that. I download firmware updates from the LG website, throw it on a USB drive, and plug that into the TV. Actually important firmware updates are so rare that I’m fine with the extra effort required.
i dont have an LG, but I’ve only had to firmware update 1 TV in like… the past 13 years, and that was because it had a horrible issue with the image vertically splitting in half and green corruption across the bottom. Which makes you think hardware failure, but it wasnt, the firmware update 100% fixed it for the rest of its life.
So unless you are facing a major, catastrophic issue like that, I’d say fuck updates.

yeah, i don’t have any desire to update my TV as long as I can plug in HDMI and get a picture and sound
Exactly. If it’s displaying the line-in correctly, I don’t see what a firmware update would bring to the table.
It’s a display. Once it’s achieved being able to act like that, then you should be done for as long as the hardware lasts.
