It is saying that it can not connect to your network. You may want to check to see if you have a WIRED configuration setup on the system, if so disable, it could be looking to connect via wired before connecting over the wireless configuration.

LAN is shorthand for Local Area Network. Basically means your local wifi system.

VERY IMPORTANT: This DVD player is 'not' wireless. It is however 'wireless ready', which means you need to buy the Sony 'wireless adapter' and plug it into the unit's USB port (One in the back and in the front of the unit). Then you will be able to configure its wireless capabilities. The 'wireless ready' part if often overlooked or misunderstood as 'wireless' which is incorrect. Otherwise you will need to connect an RJ45 (Ethernet) cable from your Internet router directly into it to be able to connect to the internet. Hope this helps. Let me know.

Make sure your wi-fi is on on the Laptop/system, if it's on then just search from the list of routers available on your sustem, check the name given on back cover of router, enter password and it should work for you. Thanks, Tushar

I just received this printer and have a company coming to my home to set it up on Monday. I have done some online research and found many people have trouble with the wireless connection. I have a laptop computer and have wireless internet via ATT Uverse "2Wire" modem. I found this answer when I did a search online: "I had the same problems with a 2Wire router from AT&T. I simply found the router and selected "open system" and then chose the WEP encryption and entered the key. The printer immediately connected to the router." Evidently using "shared" instead of "open" is the problem.

it has wireless card inside the PC tower, but not reliable. When I used it, the PC lost wireless connection every hours and I had to remove and connect it again. My laptop on the same room didn't have such problem.it is most possible to be the hardware issue

I reset my router about once a week to resolve this problem.I don't believe it's the net book at fault but something to do with the router taking a break from it's work. Sometimes my cable company disconnects which is when i reset their connection also. I love this machine by the way... fabulous value for the money.

I had no problem connecting - what are you trying to do and what have you tried? Are you using a wireless access point?

Paul, Appreciate the input. But, that's not it. It's been connected to the wireless network the whole time. Any other ideas? Anybody?

Move it back to your original location and see if you have connectivity. Another method to troubleshoot is to leave it where it is, bring your computer within close proximity, scan and see if you see the SSID of the extender, (you should have named it something other than the SSID of your router, ex: ssidname-ex). If you don't see it when scanning for available networks, then you probably have a bad/failed extender. If you do see it, connect to it, possibly with the default password if your established password doesn't work. Hope this helps.

I have a cable connection and an ancient wireless-G router. I haven't experienced any connectivity problems. My only problem so far is getting used to WIN 8 (I'm almost 66 and getting set in my ways :-D).

I have absolutely NO problem with the WiFi. I have had NO problem with this machine at all since I got it . I was afraid to get it for the same reason.

wifi problem was solved by following instructions and downloading the updated drivers for the NIC. If you can not do that then buy a 10 dollar usb NIC and problem solved. I bought my laptop last feb 14th for my wife and she loves it, the problem is not the router but the brand of network adaptor in the laptop and the maker put out new drivers that fix the reported problem. hope this helps

You need to make sure your laptop or desktop has Wi-Fi (wireless) connectivity. Also, it's od idea to buy from vendor you know and trust. I had two HP Wi-Fi mice go bad on me

Sorry no I plugged it in and it worked. Sometimes I have to point it at the router but I believe that is a computer problem not a problem with the Bolse.

I just picked up one of these today. I had no problems connecting to the wireless router (2WIRE) in another room. Good luck getting it to work.
