Not sure this will work for you but did for me. I took the IP, Subnet Mask, Gateway and DNS settings from my laptop (which is part if my network), and configured them in the settings of my LG Blu Ray. This was a last didth effort but it actually work. Good luck

Can you help? We have tried two LG Blu Rays and have had hundreds of minutes of discussion with LG support and no one can help us. We cannot get connected to UTube or Netflix wirelessly. Our signal is strong. The system tells us to "try again" and then locks up. Any ideas?

I don't see what the wi-fi adaptor has to do with your choice of cd/dvd player. The Sony TV MUST have a Sony wiFi adaptor though, other brands do not seem to work. The Sony wifi adaptor has a pretty crappy antenna, and needs to be pretty close to your wifi router to get a good signal. I would guess you have your BluRay connected to a central receiver/amplifier with physical cable?

Something like the Samsung BD-F5900 3D Wi-Fi Blu-ray Disc Player (2013 Model) should do the trick. Higher priced models have more features that you may or may not be interested in.

Sorry but not Wifi compatible as far as I can see you may try with a USB wifi stick but our would have to do a firmware update to get this feature it is a very basic blu-ray hope this helps you

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.

Really depends on your Internet setup. I assume you have the most basic high speed connection. This won't work with dial-up. Well, it might, but it would be too slow. So, if your internet modem (DSL or Cable) does not have multiple internet connections, you'll need to get a router. You can get a wireless router that has both wired and wireless options but this Blu Ray is only set for wired. So I suggest running a running an Internet cable (Cat5 or 5e or 6 is there "normal" name) from your router/modem to the TV. If it's not close, well that sucks. I had to run mine through the basment floor, along some ducts and up close to the TV/player. It works great. You can buy wireless accessories/bridge to make it work but that's quite a bit of $$$ to get good speed.

simply yes, hook up directly from your cable modem to your blu-ray player. I use this cable from one of the ports of my d-link wireless to my blu-ray player and if you're signed up with Netflix streaming then lot's of watching movies for you...good luck!!

I have the same problem with this LG player. It won't stream Netflex. I did the reset for factory settings and I deactivated and reactivated Netflex. Neither action helped. I a starting to think that the LG Blu-ray is the problem

I'm trying to do the exact same thing. I have a Sony BDP N460, a blu ray player with an ethernet port but no wireless. First let me suggest what I'm currently using. The Netgear XAV101 PowerLine AV (look for the product that includes two units) which sends internet through your existing power wires. You connect an ethernet cable from your router to one of these devices plugged in to an outlet. Then take the second device and plug it in where you want internet access. Ideally you can get about 150 Mbps (when I connected to the next room). But where I need to go is across the house and the speed is at best 47 Mbps. The bottom line however is that it totally works. I can stream Netflix content (in HD) no problem. The quality is noticeable reduced, but definitely watchable, and for content you're not going to watch on blu ray disc anyways, might not be an issue. Now for the question at hand, I just received this item you are asking about. I was hoping it would grab internet wirelessly from my wireless N router. I'm thinking that yes another one may be required. For just under twice as much there is this product http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00126R3P6/ which includes two wireless bridges. This may be what we're looking for. I can't understand why there isn't simply a single device that will connect wirelessly to my wireless router and give internet access to a network device. But maybe it's possible if the tech said so. I hope so otherwise I'm spending more money and I want to stick with Netgear because my experience and the general consensus is that their devices are more reliable than others. And I just noticed the post is a year old. Well maybe this will help someone.

Can my wireless router access this LG blu ray or do I need to hook up a cable?

if you have a blu ray player in a room without internet access..no Ethernet portals..its easier to do updates and for streaming services like Netflix. I was using one of those ethernet power bridge setups on my last blu ray because my entertainment center is in a room that does not have a portal. Wireless has no baring on the playback of discs, its about maintenance and other functions such as playing videos from your pc thru the player on to your TV

The connectivity capabilities of the TV and Blu-ray player aren't meant to transfer content, but to connect each device to the internet. Your WiFi Blu-ray player will still be connected to your TV via HDMI, it's just that the Blu-ray player will be able to stream Netflix, for example. When a TV like the UN55B8500 is connected to the internet over WiFi, it can do things like get weather forecasts, or stream Amazon on-demand video from Yahoo! TV widgets.

I have a dual-band router... the Asus "Dark Knight" router (a VERY nice router). It has both 5.0 and 2.4 bands on "n" wireless. My BD device only sees the 2.4 band. In fact, I only have a couple of devices which can see my "5.0" channel. In those cases, I always connect them to the 5.0 band, because it's so seldom used otherwise.

DLP: Like others, my BD390 quit playing many of the newer bluray discs a couple weeks ago. Firmware is current. After first discussion with LG support, I took the unit to an authorized electronic repair. Am told the unit is working properly but CANNOT be updated further to play the newer blurays coming out, despite firmware updates. Spoke again TODAY with LG support and they confirmed this. Was told there was NO upgrade available for the unit and that NO discount would be given on purchasing a newer LG unit! They were amazingly indifferent and told me I was "out of luck".......would either have to accept the fact this unit was ALREADY outdated for current and upcoming blurays, or buy a newer unit. I WILL NOT BE BUYING FUTURE LG PRODUCTS. DLP

LG BD550 Network Blu-ray Disc PlayerDoes not support the LG AN-WF100 WiFi adapter, that works only on LG t.v's. The BD-550 is wired Ethernet only and does not support the WiFi adapter.
