Connecting to your
Home Network
This player 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, 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.

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.
y
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.
