Sony XBR - Cannot connect to wireless internet: If I can't get the wireless how do I get the update?

The XBR9 does not have a built-in WiFi adapter unlike the LG BD390. Your TV should be connected to your router either with an ethernet cable or through a wireless bridge. Sony officially supports Linksys by Cisco WET610N Wireless-N Ethernet Bridge with Dual-Band. See http://esupport.sony.com/referencebook/en/xbr9/pages/gettingstarted/networksetup.html

There is a know issue with the Sony Tablet S, where the wifi will not connect upon waking, turning on or it totally looses connection They did push an update to "correct" the issue, but it didn't help. You can download apps that will help to keep the wifi connected but they are minor in helping at best. I would suggest selling your tablet and buying another brand.

Your question is very vague. The answer that I am able to provide with the info provided is as follows. If you go to sony.com and look up the owners manual for your specific model you will find the answer. It will state that you need adapter UWA-BR100 if this one applies to your model. Either way it should tell you whether or not you can set your bluray player up for wi-fi.

I have XP Home with SP2 and I am having trouble. I'm connected to the wireless network, but can't actually use the internet.

Amy, provided you have updated to the latest software on your Xbox 360, you should have no problem connecting to wifi. If you need to update first, do that with a wired connection. From then on, you can use the wireless to update and connect to xbox live. The letters N, B & G refer to different wireless standards. It works with all the varieties.

Just had this problem. Took computer to my guru's, who downloaded new driver for wireless. Appears to have worked. From my snooping around on various sites, this appears to be a common problem. If you have a computer guru, ask them to check the drivers (or check for driver yourself - I'm too lazy and/or inept). I have also read on-line that the wireless network adapters in general have a pretty high failure rate. Supposedly they are easy to replace - don't know that myself. Good luck! It's a nice product except for the occasional glitch.

Did you ever get it to work wirelessly? I am having the same problem where I cant get it to work wireless.

Dang! Yeah, that is unfortunate. A wireless connection would have been a good complement to my Roku Netflix player. I can only assume that Sony will look to add wireless capability into the next generation of BD players...

Maybe not...Mine would not find the wireless internet even though I followed the directions very carefully. I had to mess around with it multiples times over a couple of days before I finally was able to get it to recognize the connection.

I don't know if there is firmware update available. I am using it as a repeater so I can use the lan port for a desktop computer without wireless.

It looks like LG did correct the problem with the firmware upgrade. I did the firmware upgrade thru my wireless network just couple days ago and it came thru successfully. I was thinking if it failed, I'd do what Matt suggested. You might want to give it a try again with the upgrade. I'm going to rent a blue-ray movie, hopefully it won't freeze.

go to wifi icon than menue put in your password to your wireless and you are connected. I had to do it a few times to get it right. Also download pamlet and it tells you in there.

Call them. The number is in the instructions. They are very helpful and will walk you through the process of setting up the wireless feature. It works like a dream and well worth the trouble.

Yes, with the optional cable. The many posts you see about updating is because for a while (2011ish) the company was bought out by someone else...and for a while, the website for updating was down. Now, all is well.

I tried updating the reciver, but so far has no update, If someone discovers how to upgrade or find another way let me know.

VERY IMPORTANT: This DVD player is 'not' wireless. It is however 'wireless ready', which means you need to buy the Sony 'wireless adapter' and plug it into the unit's USB port (One in the back and in the front of the unit). Then you will be able to configure its wireless capabilities. The 'wireless ready' part if often overlooked or misunderstood as 'wireless' which is incorrect. Otherwise you will need to connect an RJ45 (Ethernet) cable from your Internet router directly into it to be able to connect to the internet. Hope this helps. Let me know.

Do you have yours connected directly to the internet? I have not actully tried to update mine but I have seen automatic updates. I will have to check & see what the most recent one is, & get back to you.
