Internet connection
This player can be connected to a local area network (LAN) via the LAN
port on the rear panel.
By connecting the unit to a broadband home network, you have access to
services such as software updates, BD-Live interactivity, and streaming
services such YouTube, etc.
• Ethernet cable connection
Connect the player’s LAN port to the corresponding port on your Modem or
Router using a LAN cable.
Use a commercially available LAN or Ethernet cable (CAT5 or better with
RJ45 connector. If the player is not near a network connection, many
retailers have LAN cables in lengths of 50 feet or more.
• Ethernet Adapter connection
Another connection option is to use an Ethernet adapter. One of the most
popular Ethernet adapter options available from many retailers is a
Powerline Ethernet Adapter.
Other available options include Wireless Ethernet Adapters and “Game
System Ethernet Adapters”. Refer to the setup instructions supplied with
your Ethernet adapter for detailed connection steps.
Direct internet connection strongly recommended.
Watching Netflix, CinemaNow and YouTube Videos with wireless net-
work may cause poor, flickered or stopped playback condition.
After making the physical connection, a small number of home networks
may require the player's network setting to be adjusted. This adjustment
can be done from the [Setup] menu - see "[NETWORK] Menu on page
27-28 for detailed instructions.
Cautions:
• When plugging or unplugging the LAN cable, hold the plug portion of the
cable. When unplugging, do not pull on the LAN cable but unplug while
pressing down on the lock.
• Do not connect a modular phone cable to the LAN port.
• Since there are various connection configurations, please follow the
specifications of your telecommunication carrier or internet service
provider.
Notes:
• Many network connection problems during set up can often be fixed by
re-setting the router or modem. After connecting the player to the home
network, quickly power off and/or disconnect the power cable of the
home network router or cable modem. Then power on and/or connect
the power cable again.
• Depending on the internet service provider (ISP), the number of devices
that can receive internet service may be limited by the applicable terms
of service. For details, contact your ISP.
