Re: Samsung Blu-ray player says the HTTP port is disabled
I just Googled "Samsung Bluray http disabled"' and found this interesting link on another forum. Looks like either manually configuring a DNS server address on the Blu-Ray player or manually configuring a static IP, gateway address and DNS server address works.

Re: Samsung Blu-ray player says the HTTP port is disabled
Did you try entering a static IP address as well as a gateway address? What did you enter?
Is your player obtaining an IP address from the router?

Re: Samsung Blu-ray player says the HTTP port is disabled
It might be easier to switch the player back to using DHCP to obtain an IP address. Then, just override the DNS server address. If you want to use a static IP, then you will have to use an address that outside the range of addresses managed by the router's DHCP server. For example, if the router is set up to hand out addresses between 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.100, then using something like 192.168.1.200.
As to the DNS server address, you probably entered the router's IP address. You should, instead, enter the address of a real DNS server on the Internet. Use 8.8.8.8. This is the IP address for Google's DNS server. Being Google, it's pretty much guaranteed to work.

Re: Samsung Blu-ray player says the HTTP port is disabled
I have a Samsung Bluray BD E5300. It used to work fine for 4 years. Then one day it decided it didn't want to connect to the internet anymore. I have been online for over six months looking for a solution. It is the final connection 'Internet Service Test' that is having the 'HTTP port is disabled' message. I have tried every 'trick' out there. It is not the router I have come to realize. The player was originally connected to one service provider with its router and now it is connected to a different one in a different town. So I believe it is the actual player that is the culprit. Any new suggestions out there? I'm just about ready to toss it out and buy a new one.

Re: Samsung Blu-ray player says the HTTP port is disabled
Finally!!!! The firmware update did the trick. After trying two different service providers, I came to the conclusion it was the player and not the router. I hope everyone else out there sees this who thinks it is an IP address issue.
