Question

I have a samsung BDP1400 blu-ray player. I have tried to update but it does not connect to the internet even when i have it plug ed into my laptop with wireless internet.First, it says it is connected then it says can not fined internet. I also put my IP,gateway, and ect.Whats the problem.

Answer 1

Network devices need to have unique IPs.

So, don't connect it to your laptop, connect it to your router.

Your router will provide the player an IP an all the other info.

Most probably you need to connect it to the router WIRED, since I doubt it has a wireless adaptor built-in.

Answer 2

You can do what TV Guy said to get internet to your player.  You can also do two other things.  You can go to Samsung.com and download the update and burn it to a CD and upload it that way.  You can also contact Samsung for the update and they will send it to you.  There number is 1-800-SAMSUNG (726-7864)
