I just posted that because it seemed to be a spring-board for what you're wanting. How to activate it on the SE, for example.

i didnt know tv's had wi fi so i guess no?
i was asking how to connect tv to router originally which is what seems to have been overlooked.
given that it was a big thing to be able to share media from phone to tv i thought would have been something simple to do or someone would be able to explain how they have managed to do it?
now im guessing you need to buy additional hardware to go between tv and router??
if so am very disappointed with sony ericsson for this as i was wowed by the fact that this could be done and was one major reason i got the phone!

of course you need a DNLA device to stream your pics to.
So yes you need a DNLA device or a TV with built in wifi (new sony lcds have this).

Netromantik's right.
DLNA is something like aa protocol, used thru wi-fi. There will be no mention of connection type DLNA, however, both devices should have wi-fi. So if your tv does not have wi-fi, you cant connect to it, Just like your tv's remote wont connect to your mobile phone(assuming c905 does not have infrared port).

Thank you very much.
Would have been great for someone else to have said this (if they actually knew) without stabbing in the dark and getting wrong and making this thread longer than necessary.

Go to the following website to find heaps of DLNA compatible equipment
http://www.dlna.org/products/
It does not necessarily have to go over WiFi, another option is Ethernet as not everything has WiFi or Ethernet (they usually have one or the other)
There are new BRAVIA TV's that are DLNA compatible via an Ethernet cable (they can only stream picture and music though)
I have a PS3 which has both Ethernet and WiFi and I use this to stream music from my computer (but it can handle videos and pictures as well), it should be compatible with your phone. Depending on how much your spending and what else you want it to do this could be a great choice
