Sony BD player and wireless adapter: Any tips?
1723940
According to one review, that person couldn't get this wireless adapter to work with a Linksys, so they purchased a different router. I'm not positive if it is pertinent, but I believe Linksys has some type of OneButton setup feature for wireless adapter configuration called SecureEasySetup. I've never used that feature, but I once had to turn it off to get an adapter to work with it. You might try that. Turn off the SecureEasySetup option in the router options and see it that works. It's just a guess on my part, but I do have some experience with the Linksys router family. Also, be sure to Dhcp feature in your router so the Sony adapter can get an address automatically.

I got my BD-P2500 today. They first thing I tried was to upgrade with BD-P2550 firmware. I tried both CD and USB methods. Unfortunately the player is clever enough to know it's being upgraded with the wrong firmware. Upgrading with the correct BD-P2500 firmware worked fine.Too bad. So sad.

I have since received the cd-rom from Panasonic to upgrade my DMP-BD35 blue-ray player and that solved the problem. It is now properly upgraded with the Version.7 firmware upgrade. If there are others having a similar problem upgrading their firmware, contact Panasonic.

I just the adapter in each unit.. But I found that if I turned my rear wireless speakers on I had issues. Turned the rear speakers off and all worked well!

Hi kaushik, apparently this Sony DRBTN200 doesn't support wire connection, only Bluetooth. -Ely

Kent and Janean: sorry I did not understand the question. I do not have an answer since my bluray player has always been hardwired ethernet cable. Quick search does not identify a wifi connection that will work with Sony other than what Sony sells. Amazon shows it at $64.95.

I am not sure. However, it stopped connecting to wireless. I could not find a working phone number for Sony so I "chatted" with a customer service person who said that server was down for Sony bluejay players and they didn't know when it would be fixed. I tried again last night and it still does not work 4 months later. We are going to buy a new one, but not from Sony. Sorry I could not be more positive.

Simply connect an HDMI cablefrom the "audio/video out" of the cable box or receiver into the appropriate "audio/video in" slot at the back of the Sony sub-woofer. Then connect another HDMI cable from the "audio/video out" from the sub-woofer to the "video in" slot on the HDTV. HDMI supports both picture and sound. There is also a slot for a DVD player on the back of the sub-woofer. Just plug the DVD player video out into this slot using an HDMI cable and nothing else is required. Use high speed HDMI cables when playing Blu-Ray or 3D movies. In fact 3D won't work without them.

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.

Your question is very vague. The answer that I am able to provide with the info provided is as follows. If you go to sony.com and look up the owners manual for your specific model you will find the answer. It will state that you need adapter UWA-BR100 if this one applies to your model. Either way it should tell you whether or not you can set your bluray player up for wi-fi.

Very interesting --especially since the Roku website says XD is compatible with WPA2. I presume the BD85 was ok with WPA2 -- right?

Try putting in a USB memory stick and then updating firmware. You could plug another blu ray player in to this device using an optical digital cable. I plugged an Xbox in that way, until throwing the whole thing away and swearing off LG devices in this line. The player is junk and LG washed their hands of it and orphaned it.

Regular Lan adaptor won't work. You have to buy one from Samsung, and it costs more that the blu Ray player. Like Sony stuff...it's propriatory!
