Will this work pluged into my blue-ray player, so I can have it wireless and watch netfix or hulu on my tv through my blue ray blayer?

Most likely it will not work. The device is meant for a computer, and not a standalone device. The computer will have the necessary means of loading software to make it work, whereas the blueray/DVD player has a custom operating system that will not work the same way.

It will work plugged into your blu ray player (or any other player) USB port ONLY IF such a player is properly connected or attached to the network using the required protocols. Blu ray players available on a network are usually installed in a computer, and it is the computer that is connected to the network, not the blu ray player, per se.. the player is simply a network ´share´ that the computer has available on the network.

No. It is meant for a computer. It does not include any software for your bluray player. Why not get an Apple TV, Google Chromecast, Ruko, or Amazon Fire TV. They are designed for exactly what you need and some are cheaper than the Asus you are looking at. Heck for the price of the Asus adapter you could buy a WiFi enabled bluray player.

No, it won't work when plugged directly into a smart TV. As Moonman1123 stated, you can hook it up to a computer and run video/audio cables from the computer to the TV and use it that way, but if you just need a BluRay player for a smart TV, then I'd suggest going with something like this player (personally, I prefer to have the same brand player as my TV, which is LG in my case) or picking up a lower end model from a local store (if you have a smart TV, you can save a bit on the player by getting one without WiFi).

Hello from Medialink, This device will not work with an HDTV or BluRay Player or anything that does not run on an Operating System. Unfortunately the TV companies force you to buy their brand of wireless adapter (which is why they can charge so much for it). Thanks, Medialink Products 856-216-8222 support@medialinkproducts.com

It should work through the wired ethernet connection. You would have to plug it into the internet or ISP connection on the router.

Yes. It's wireless ability to connect to the internet with Netflix/Hulu/ect alone really makes this system along w/ability to play Blue Ray DVD's. Connecting the system for the sound for all tv channels will require you use this as the primary base.

I don't know. I plug it into my laptop and T.V. It your blueray player has a HDMI port it should work.

There is a website devoted to BD-Live, i.e. connecting a Blu-Ray player to the internet:http://www.rayinblu.com/blu-ray-wirelessIt includes a list of compatible hardware to make the conversion from ethernet to wireless.

I hooked it up on a older Blu Ray Dvd player that didn,t have wireless built in to it using one of its hdmi ports and connected to my wireless router and it works fine.

I don't think so. The device you connect this to needs at least the Ethernet port to do anything with the Internet connection. There may be adapters for Ethernet to HDMI, but I do not know if that would do any good, since I think your television is not Internet ready and would not know what to do with the signal from the Belkin Adapter. The Belkin Adapter is only a wireless Internet router and nothing more. IT is not a Smart Device that give you Netflix, Hulu or any of those oterh services which I think is what you are interested in.

Yes, just a connection from blu-ray player to TV and wireless or wired connection to your internet

Thanks for your question, but - since I don't have a Blu-Ray machine - I actually have no idea if this use is possible. Assuming the Blu-Ray has an Ethernet port, I suppose it may be technically possible. You would still need to set this up with a computer so it can connect to your network. HOWEVER, if this can be done it would be better for you to use an N wireless adapter, because of its higher speed and bandwidth capability.

@Debbie, The HDMI cable transmits the Audio/Video to your TV. The "Wireless" portion of the BluRay player allows you to connect to your WiFi router in your home to access the internet. This will allow you to stream Netflix or Pandora. Thanks, Mediabridge Customer Support 856-216-8222 Tue-Sat 9am to 6pm Eastern support@mediabridgeproducts.com

depend on what interface you have. If you have Hdmi on your blu-ray player, I am sure that It works well. Or you need to compare what interface they have for both devices. Good luck

It should work. Only reason it shouldn't be working is if the HDMI port on the Blue Ray is not giving enough power. If you do get it, I suggest trying it on a TV with HDMI and try connecting it to a VGA Laptop

I purchase the LAN adaptor as a present for a family member. As a result, I do not know if it works with that Blu Ray.

Really depends on your Internet setup. I assume you have the most basic high speed connection. This won't work with dial-up. Well, it might, but it would be too slow. So, if your internet modem (DSL or Cable) does not have multiple internet connections, you'll need to get a router. You can get a wireless router that has both wired and wireless options but this Blu Ray is only set for wired. So I suggest running a running an Internet cable (Cat5 or 5e or 6 is there "normal" name) from your router/modem to the TV. If it's not close, well that sucks. I had to run mine through the basment floor, along some ducts and up close to the TV/player. It works great. You can buy wireless accessories/bridge to make it work but that's quite a bit of $$$ to get good speed.
