I'm not sure, but you can send an email to D-link, and I'm sure they will respond to your question. The link is http://support.dlink.com/If your answer is not there, you have "customer service" and "contact support" options on the bottom of that same page.

Thanks for your question, but - since I don't have a Blu-Ray machine - I actually have no idea if this use is possible. Assuming the Blu-Ray has an Ethernet port, I suppose it may be technically possible. You would still need to set this up with a computer so it can connect to your network. HOWEVER, if this can be done it would be better for you to use an N wireless adapter, because of its higher speed and bandwidth capability.

No, not without a separate device with WiFi. This TV is not a "Smart TV". You need something like Roku to be able to access Netflix on this TV.

Thanks for the answer in regard to the number of speakers. My blu-ray has Wi-Fi and that's why I asked about disabling Wi-Fi in the receiver. Thanks again.

This TV does not have wifi so you would have to buy an external unit such as Roku and hook it up to tv via hdmi and connect that to your internet and you can stream movies that way.

No and yes... It will depend on how your wifi is set up... With AT& T / NO... Be careful with your choice of cables to connect either your DVR or sound system, etc... I am not an expert in this area so I will have to state it in laymen terms: We had our Blu-Ray Disc installed along with a Bose Sound bar... The guys that were here took the cord (has one male end) and hooked it up.. A pretty good picture. He asked, "May I show you some thing that will improve your pic?" To make a long story short we had to go to a much thicker cable (female end)... The difference in the picture was amazing. This guy explained to me that by going to this other cable it actually brought us up to 1080P... With the other cable we were viewing with much less high def... He was correct. I purchased this particular Blu-Ray to match up with our Sony Hi Def TV... We have been well pleased with the player and the Bose... My wife did not want speakers everywhere and that is why we went with the Bose sound bar and Bass Reflex speaker. I hope this helps... I know it is away from you original question. If in doubt; get an electronic wizard that you know to set up your system... The costs will certainly be justified after you see and hear the results.

I'm sorry but no. The only WiFi adapter that will work with any TV, Blu-Ray Player, printer, (any non-computer) is the proprietary adapter from the company that makes that device. In this case you would need the Samsung adapter. Samsung doesn't tell us how to make an adapter that will work with their equipment unfortunately.

Yes. It's wireless ability to connect to the internet with Netflix/Hulu/ect alone really makes this system along w/ability to play Blue Ray DVD's. Connecting the system for the sound for all tv channels will require you use this as the primary base.

Hi, Arthur! If you're asking if you can plugin the router in your room without using a PC, it depends. If your modem is in the same room where your blu-ray player is, that'll do. You don't always have to use a PC with the router setup.

can you download movies to this and be able to watch the movie without being on wifi?

No built in wifi, USB he's and Ethernet cord yes, but I shipped mine back as I would not get it, it's not a region free blu ray player as it states, only plays region A and that's it, really disappointed and it feels cheaply made!

You will need to us a computer (pc or Mac) with a plug in Ethernet connection to configure this before using with the bluray. Once configured it works stand alone and will join your Ethernet port bluray to your wifi.

sorry, can't assist. I use it to write blu-rays from my PC,, have never needed to try and play using it, have a blu-ray player for that.

Kathy H., You would need an ethernet cable to reach your home network if you want to use this blu ray player for netflix and other internet services.You do not need the cable if you just want to use it to watch blu ray disks and files on a thumb drive.I hope this helps

i have only used a 3d blu ray player for my 3d efforts... however i can still get wifi outside and could potentially use this on the patio where mine is installed at. thus if you do find an answer to this i would like to know. i currently have a netgear hub with 4 2tb drives that store my music and movies its on my home network so its available on almost any device that see's my network that would be a good opportunity for me to upgrade laptops and get 3d via that as well... have fours sets of glasses and they all work great so i can only imagine if what your asking works. thanks E

no I doesn't think this one can work that way, it doesn't have a wifi system and one problem I'm having with it its a black line in the middle of the screen and I'm not satisfied with it right now I'm looking forward to buy a new projector

My husband and I are debating the BD65 vs the BD85. If your HDTV has wifi do you need it on the blu-ray player also or is it simply redundant?

1> Dunno, but if Mac can support Blu-Ray, it should be.2&3> The Blu-ray is dual-USB powered. ie it uses not just one, but two USB ports separately. Not a Y-cable, but two separate USB cables (One is for data/power, but the second is power only).4> You -can- use an independent USB power supply (there are many inexpensive ones on Amazon), and if you can find the supply with the right voltage/orientation/wattage, I am sure it is possible to get an A/C power supply. Best rule of thumb: Google USB voltage/wattage, or consult with the manufacturer.
