 Samsung Wireless LAN Adaptor for Blu-Ray Player May 26, 2009
Jeffrey A. Walsh (Massachusetts)

I have the Samsung LN52A-650 LCD TV and the BD-P1600 Blu-Ray player. I have wireless internet access in my house. Initially, I had a real problem getting the BR player to connect to the internet. It would find my SSID but would not connect. When I set the configuration to manual and input all the requested information, it failed the Ping test. After hours of troubleshooting, I found a piece of information on the web, telling me that the SSID cannot have characters or spaces in the ID. I had spaces in the SSID name, so once I fixed that, it connected without a problem. I didn't need to buy a new wireless router. That seemed to be the leading fix for this problem for others on the web. However, I didn't want to go through the hassle of re-configuring a new wireless router nor did I wanted to spend the money on one. In the end, I didn't have to.
Amazing Adapter! April 14, 2009

Wow, this wireless adapter could not be any easier to set up! Using on my Samsung BDP-1600 Blu-Ray, I just plugged it in, went to the DVD menu, setup, selected my wireless network which brought up a keyboard to enter my network password. Instantly and automatically, it connected to the network and gives you a code, which you enter on Netflix (just follow the on-screen TV instructions). INSTANT MOVIES! Very good quality. You can get HD quality movies with a type "N" router, but I only have a type "G", but still, the quality is great! If you unplug the adapter and replug it in, it automatically reconnects to your router and Netflix so you don't have to go through setup again.
I highly recommend it for streaming your Netflix movies to your TV (my TV is a Samsung LN52A630)
This works, but is far more useful on the Blu-Ray players than on the TV October 20, 2009

I have two of these adapters, one for my Samsung PN50B650 50-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV HDTV , and one for my Samsung BD-P3600 1080p Blu-ray Disc Player (the latter was included). The adapters work very well on my wireless-N network. They support the WPA2 security that I use, and I haven't had any problems with them dropping signal. I am able to watch 1080p video files streaming from my home network's DLNA server, and 1080p video files from Netflix without incident. I also updated firmware on both my TV and Blu-Ray player using the adapters, and everything worked well.
I did find that my TV's DLNA player service is severely crippled when compared to the USB-playback option, so I would not recommend purchasing this adapter for the TV, unless you are OK with streaming videos without the ability to pause, fast-forward, or rewind them. Bear in mind, you cannot use a generic adapter for the Samsung HDTV's or Blu-Ray players, so this is your best wireless option for these devices. I also hear that these adapters work only on Samsung's 2009 products, and that there is another one available for the 2008 players.
Excellent, easy to use! June 15, 2009

I thought this product was excellent! I received it Saturday afternoon, and less than 30mins later, I had both a Pandora station streaming, and choosing instant movies for my queue. This product was almost plug and play in my new Samsung Blu Ray Home Theater System (BD1200). I plugged it in, and the first thing I see on the screen is "Would you like to set up a network" (or something very close!). It should be noted that I dont have any security on my wireless network due to living in the stix (no one is really close enough to 'steal' our internet). Therefore, I had no security key to enter which made my setup much easier. I chose the wireless option, and then found the name of my network (it was the only one) and in a few secs I was connected. You have to setup your netflix and pandora accounts using a computer and enter an access code given to you on your TV screen. As soon as that was completed I was good to go! Also, some have stated that the netflix movie quality is not the best, I disagree. Maybe its not HD/Blu-Ray quality, but I never expected that! It only takes 30secs to upload the movie and then you are ready to watch. The only thing I dont like about the netflix is rewinding. You can choose the scene to rewind back to, but then you have to wait the 30sec for it to upload again. Pandora is great if you know how to use it. If you are a newbie, you might want to spend some time on the internet site before you play with it due to the complexities of the system. Its userfriendly, but you have to know how it works! Overall, I love this product. My only complaint is that Samsung should have included this product in my Home Theater System to begin with!
you need to read what works with what before you blindly buy ! April 19, 2009
