(modem, etc.)
Your Blu-ray Disc™ player can be connected to your home network:
By connecting an Ethernet cable to the ETHERNET jack on the rear of your player and to a wired hub or router. 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.
By connecting through the built-in wireless device and a wireless access point or router.
• 
Connecting your player to a wired router
Connect an Ethernet cable (CAT5 or better with RJ45 connector) to the 
• 
ETHERNET jack on the back of your player 
and to an Ethernet jack on a hub or broadband router.
Notes:
Do  not  connect  a  modular 
• 
phone cable to the ETHERNET 
jack.
When plugging or unplugging 
• 
the cable, hold the connector 
on the end of the cable. When 
unplugging, do not pull on the 
cable. Press down the lock tab 
and pull the connector out of 
the jack.
Because  there  are  various 
• 
connection  configurations, 
follow  the  instructions  from 
your telecommunication carrier 
or Internet service provider. 
Connecting your player to a wireless access point or router
Your Blu-ray Disc™ player has an integrated Wi-Fi device and antenna. No physical connection to the wireless router is 
necessary.
Confi gure your player to access the wireless access point or router. For more information, see “Confi guring a wireless 
• 
Internet connection” on page 31.
The  network  confi guration  and  connection  method  may  vary  depending  on  the  equipment  in  use  and  the  network 
• 
environment. Your Blu-ray disc player is equipped with an IEEE 802.11n wireless module, which also supports the 
802.11 a/b/g/n standards. For the best wireless performance, we recommend using an IEEE 802.11n certifi ed Wi-Fi 
network (access point or wireless router).

Notes:
You must use a wireless IP sharer that supports IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n. 
• 
(n is recommended for stable operation of the wireless network.)
Wireless LAN, in its nature, may cause interference, depending on 
• 
the use condition (AP performance, distance, obstacle, interference 
by other radio devices, etc.).
Set the wireless IP sharer to Infrastructure mode. Ad-hoc mode is 
• 
not supported.
When applying the security key for the AP (wireless IP sharer), only 
• 
the following is supported.
1) Authentication Mode : WPAPSK, WPA2PSK
2) Encryption Type : WEP, TKIP, AES
