Connecting to your

Home Network

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 on-line

content services.

Wired network connection

Using a wired network provides the best

performance, because the attached devices

connect directly to the network and are not subject

to radio frequency interference.

Please refer to the documentation for your network

device for further instructions.

Connect the player’s LAN port to the corresponding

port on your Modem or Router using a

commercially available LAN or Ethernet cable.

(CAT5 or better with RJ45 connector).

yWhen 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.

yDo not connect a modular phone cable to

the LAN port.

Notes on Network Connection:

yMany network connection problems during

set up can often be xed by re-setting the

router or modem. After connecting the player

to the home network, quickly power o and/

or disconnect the power cable of the home

network router or cable modem. Then power on

and/or connect the power cable again.

yDepending 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.

yOur company is not responsible for any

malfunction of the player and/or the internet

connection feature due to communication

errors/malfunctions associated with your

broadband internet connection, or other

connected equipment.

yThe features of BD-ROM discs made available

have questions about such content, please

contact the producer of the disc.

ySome internet contents may require a higher

bandwidth connection.

yEven if the player is properly connected and

congured, some internet contents may not

operate properly because of internet congestion,

the quality or bandwidth of your internet service,

or problems at the provider of the content.

ySome internet connection operations may not

be possible due to certain restrictions set by the

Internet service provider (ISP) supplying your

broadband Internet connection.

yAny fees charged by an ISP including, without

limitation, connection charges are your

responsibility.

yA 10 Base-T or 100 Base-TX LAN port is required

for wired connection to this player. If your

internet service does not allow for such a

yTurn o all unused network equipment in

your local home network. Some devices may

generate network trac.

yFor the purpose of the better transmission,

placing the player from the access point as close

as possible.

yIn some instances, placing the access point or

wireless router at least 0.45 m (1.5 ft.) above the

oor may improve the reception.

yMove closer to the access point if possible or re-

orient the player so there is nothing between it

and the access point.

yThe reception quality over wireless depends on

many factors such as type of the access point,

distance between the player and access point,

and the location of the player.

ySet your access point or wireless router to

Infrastructure mode. Ad-hoc mode is not
