Connecting Amazon Prime and Netflix to my Panasonic Plasma TV
I formerly connected video by streaming from my AT&T router via an ethernet cable to my Samsung Blue-Ray Player. My TV is not smart and I've used up both of 2 available HDMI ports. I decided recently to go back to streaming, but Netflix no longer supports my Blue-Ray and DirectTV never showed up. I would like to stream Amazon Prime and Netflix to the Panasonic TV without adding a special device. I was not planning to buy the expensive HR44 router as a work around. What are my options?

First of all, I want to thank all those who gave me inputs to help me decide which way to go with adapting streaming to my Panasonic Plasma TV.
I am awaiting my multiple HDMI adapter to arrive, so I am using the port from my Blue-Ray recorder in the time being. Not sure how these extra ports will show up on the Panasonic device select, but I can probably sort it out.
There are two shortcomings of my Firestick device. One is the apparent lack of a place to connect an external speaker. The speaker on my Panasonic is not all that clear. I have been using external speakers for my Blue-Ray that has connectors for external speakers, but I cannot use them with the Firestick. The other limitation of the Firestick is the lack of a way to connect a keyboard. Using the virtual keyboard displayed on the TV is slow and frustrating. I use a Sony Receiver to interface my Blue-Ray to the speakers and it really enhances the sound. Any ideas for a work around?
