I could get mine to connect but continued getting error messages when I tried to access Netflix even though the Netflix site came up. So, I called emailed them and none of the fixes worked. If I were you I would return it and either purchase a Blue Ray player with wireless capabilities or get a Roku. I have a Sony Blue RFay wireless player and it works great. I paid $100 for it. I also have a Sony for the TV in my computer room and it is wired to my router via ethernet cable and it works great. The Rikomagic is a great idea if it would just work.

You need to set up DLNA on your Windows box, then You need a media player that is DLNA compatible

You might try using apps, like Google Drive to access your media, music ect. There are many apps that make it easy to access the content on your personal server or PC. Some off the top of my head would be PLEX, Twonky, StreamToMe and of course XBMC.

I stopped using it months ago but at the time there was no driver for Windows 8 and according to what I was told by their support desk there was no plan to provide one. I settled for using an HDMI cable to connect to my TV.

The just use the media (though Cat5 is sufficient). They are not using Ethernet framing and routers and switches won't work.

Hello Angel! To be honest I'm not sure about that. Mine isn't in the livingroom, it's in my bedroom and needs the Ethernet cord to be able to go online. Sorry I couldn't give you more then that.

I'm sorry, I can't help you ... I purchased mine to be able to have WiFi access when I rearranged the furniture in my room and couldn't have direct access to my internet cable. I haven't had any problems with it.

If your Pc is running windows 7 or later, Got to the control panel-&gt;network and sharing center-&gt;advanced sharing settings and look at media streaming. If it's off select choose media streaming options and turn on media streaming Wen you select sources on your TV you should now see your of Ale sure to add the folder you store your videos in to the library and you are good to ho

I have connected my KDL-46XBR9 to the Internet via a wireless bridge. My network schema: TV ---- Zyxel P-330W - - - Linksys WRT54G2 --- Internet You can play Internet video, download Yahoo! widgets and access local DLNA servers (Windows Media Center works - but not for all media types). Cannot surf the Internet though. See these videos to get a better idea: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2z7QF-tRaac&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHndiAZtyyY

All You need to do is plug Usb to Ethernet adapter in your hub. MK 808 will recognize it and install driver. It may take 5 min for that to happen. Also in setup you need to enable Ethernet and disable WiFi. I Got mine here on Amazon It is Aluratek USB 2.0 Ethernet Adapter model AUE0201F. $26.95. Box worked good with it, but I wanted it for my bedroom and there is not hard wire connection in there.To install it it would cost 5 times the price of MK808. I am getting BlueRay player with built in smart app's and WiFi instead. I hope this help's! Good Luck!

Hello Raymond,That's the exact application I needed in my living room. My Xbox, for some reason, wasn't picking up the WiFi signal from myrouter, so I just ran an Ethernet to it and it works great. Hope this helps.JIM

It's hard to know how to respond, because you don't say what ports your router has - or what OS you're using.The spec is pretty complete, and yes, there is no ethernet. If this is really vital, I might try connecting this to a specific host machine (I use Firewire) and then remote mounting it on other machines. (This is easy in the mac world, and I'm sure there are Windows solutions.)Hope this helps. At least, it's probably better than, "Huh?"

Use a USB to RJ45 adapter. You get the same result. Try to find USB3 version. It is a faster. Should not cost more than few dollars, and it is much cheaper than fixing broken Ethernet port. If not physically damaged make sure you have the right driver.

If you are highly tech-savvy you might be able to. You can contact the vendor for help. I ran Ethernet cables for both of mine because we had trouble getting a wireless connection to work reliably.

My picture-in-picture works fine using the WinTV v7 program. Just right click over the main picture & select what channel you want to see in the second picture. I don't think PIP will work in Windows Media Center.

look to see if there is a button on back says 'mdi - mdx' this tells the switch that it should look for a cross over connection 'mdx' then when you put in router cable it should work for the other ports

Looks like you have to hook up to the internet via an ethernet cable. I'm going to hold out for a wireless unit.

Thanks for the link. Interesting. I'm just going to have to get the WET and test it. I find it intriguing that when in DHCP mode the devices plugged into it were assigned the same IP. That would point towards the WET doing NAT. If you just want to give your media center devices connectivity (so that they can access your network and the internet) that won't matter. But if you want to contact your media center devices from elsewhere on the network it could be a problem.But everything's so ambiguous in the stuff I've seen online I think the only way to know for sure is to buy it and try it out.
