Connecting to your
Home Network

This unit can be connected to a local area
network (LAN) via the LAN port on the rear
panel or the internal wireless module.
By connecting the unit to a broadband home
network, you have access to services such
as software updates, Home Link, BD-Live
interactivity and streaming services.

Installation

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).
In the example conguration for wired
connection below, this player would be able to
access content from either of the PCs.
