We also have an Avtex TV that's not 'smart' (Series 7). I use a Firestick and it works brilliantly. Plugs into the back of the TV and takes its power from one of the built-in USB ports so you don't even know it's there.
Prior to that I tried Chromecast and found it next to useless - very clunky and half the time I couldn't get it to 'cast' programmes from my phone. Certainly wouldn't recommend it.
Only slight downside with the Firestick and your non-smart TV is that you will have to use two handsets. The volume can only be controlled from the TV handset - not the Firestick one. But when all said and done that's no real hardship!
I use a TP Link router connected to a Poynting external aerial and it works perfectly.
Hope this helps.
