What make is the BluRay player/TV?
Past discussions of these devices usually fall back to using the device to set it all up.
How far is your player from the WNDR3400? Can other things see the WNDR3400? If so, it is set up just fine and you need to look into the settings on the player/TV.
In general, TVs and such aren't that great at wifi. I use a pair of Powerline plugs to give me Internet access on the player. Not only is it easier to set up, it doesn't have the variability (iffiness) of wifi.

Brand new Panasonic 4K PVR.
Distance around 10m. Been through everything I can with the device on set up without success.
No other devices closer that utilise wi fi connection.
What are "powerline plugs". Are they a form of receiver for signal transmission?
