Just checking b4 ordering...This will serve to hardwire my router to my Sony blu-ray player, right? I was confused about the crossover cable option.

Yes it will give you internet to whatever devises I don't know about cross-over but I've been using this cord for my PS4 for almost 6 months and it hasn't failed so far.

A crossover is used for a direct connection between computers. You would NOT be able to connect to a network with a crossover.

Well doesn't amazon sell hdmi cables with ethernet? so im assuming that if you hook up the ps3 to the internet via wifi to your router, and then hook up an hdmi ethernet cable from your ps3 to you tv..shouldn't that give your tv internet?it is worth a try [i really don't know if it will work since i don't have either, just using advanced common sense :)

How did you do this?? I have an extra wireless router sitting around and would hate to have to pay another 80 dollars for a wireless adapter for the bluray player...

You need a source to plug into one of these. You'll need either a router or a switch. Take the cable currently plugged into your computer, plug that into the switch/router, and then from the switch/router, you can plug one cable into your computer and a second cable into one of these units, which is plugged into the wall. The other unit will be plugged into the wall near your blu-ray, with a cable connecting that second unit to the blu-ray.

Yep. In fact, that's the main reason I purchased this item.It all depends on the actual router whose signal your extending.

I really don't know. Would think so, but I have a different router. Sorry I cannot be of more help.

There is an ethernet port on the back that connects to the router. That should work. Personally, I already have a Roku box so I just needed it for Blu-ray. I am very pleased with the unit.

Yes, it acts as a pass through. I have found it easy, just plug n play, I used it to connect blu ray players, roku box and receiver with no problem. I am currently using a Mac air port router with no problems

No I don't think it works that way. You need two outs from your switch/router to go to the two inputs, then you need 2 coupling for the RJ45 that will run in the middle and connect the two. The only advantage of using this is that you don't have to run two cable just one.

Dear Customer, Thank you for your question regarding out Toslink Cable. Depending on your Blue Ray player and your receiver, if they both have a Toslink port, then you can use this cable. If you are unsure of what kind of ports your equipment has, please feel free to contact us via email at service@bluerigger.com with the model number of the Blue Ray player and your receiver. Thanks!BlueRigger LLCservice@bluerigger.com

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

No this won't work. You would need 2 of these to go to a router/switch if you wanted to share a single Ethernet line.

Not sure on this one but if you can settle for a 1x2 splitter I just received a "2 port 1x2 hdmi splitter v 1.3 compatible c1.4 3d 1080p switcher 5 8 ps3 xbox360 DVD blue- ray" today (March 18) and it does bypass the HDCP on my ps4. I'm using an elgato game capture.

Yes, but because it doesn't have wi fi built in, you will either need to run an ethernet cable to it from where the router is, but if you have a wireless router, use can use a wi fi extender that allows you to plug an ethernet cable into it to the blu ray player or use a powerline ethernet adapter to connect an ethernet cable to the blu ray (that will run the Internet to other areas of your house using the power grid & power outlets in your home). The last is the best method I found, as the wif fi extender would drop signal sometimes, but the powerline adapter doesn't & gives me a better connection.

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.

If you look at the image of this cable, both ends look like that plug. I am using the cable on a Blu-Ray player from the COAXIAL DIGITAL OUT connected directly to my HDTV's own COAXIAL DIGITAL IN connector. This might not work for you, double-check your manuals for the components to make sure. I learned the hard way--mistakenly bought a Digitial Optical Audio cable thinking it was the same thing as a Coaxial...not! Sorry I can't be more helpful. :D

Yes, you should be able to do this, although I am not sure you've got the correct order of connection, it should be, DSL Modem &gt; Router&gt; switch &gt; Devices... I have my PS3,AppleTV,Yamaha Receiver, and DirecTv connected to this switch, and the switch itself to my router and my router connected to my ISP Modem. it provides a much better and stable connection for improved streaming.
