    Hi R47,

These things usually come down to the settings on the BluRay player. These "smart" devices are actually very dim. You might do better to find a forum where people talk about Samsung's BluRay players.

 

I had hell's own trouble getting my Samsung BD-F6500 to work over wifi. Fortunately, I had already decided to go down the Powerline Ethernet route and now use the LAN feature.
