I have a dvd player with wifi. Will this serve as my wifi connection for this unit?

No it will not. The receiver needs to connect directly to the Internet so it can access internet services like SiriusXM, Pandora, etc., as well access to updates from Yamaha.

At my advice DO NOT but this unit. I was on the phone with Yamaha for over 3 hours. A rep told me that Yamaha receivers need to be hardwired - not at all true. If your DVD player has wifi you dont need any additional hardware. For your receiver buy the TP-LINK TL-WA801ND Wireless N300 Access Point, 2.4Ghz 300Mbps, 802.11b/g/n, AP/Client/Bridge/Repeater, 2x 4dBi, Passive POE like I did from Amazon; it works perfectly and no Yamaha issues. Good luck!

Probably but the product is awful as stated so I couldn't recommend it anyway.

No. You need a Wifi router connected to the internet. Your DVD will interface with the router. This device interfaces to a audio receiver without Wifi through a USB port and interfaces to the Wifi router.

Most likely Wifi from your DVD player would only function for DVD player app's and functions, and not for the receiver functions. This YWA-10BL is spotty on being a good product buyer beware!

I did not have much luck with this device, I ended up going with a wifi solution for our projectors. Best of luck

You need to plug it in and configure the unit to connect with your router (fairly simple) but my experience is that these units do not work that well. I returned mine. Good luck!

We have used our dvd player as our streaming unit. Our tv did not have streaming capabilities. Hope this was helpful.

Provided this unit works with your garage door and you have properly set up your connection to your WiFi system. The unit did not work with my garage door unit but I was able to see if the door was open and closed. I ultimately sent it back as it was not compatible with my garage door system.

Sorry but not Wifi compatible as far as I can see you may try with a USB wifi stick but our would have to do a firmware update to get this feature it is a very basic blu-ray hope this helps you

Kent and Janean: sorry I did not understand the question. I do not have an answer since my bluray player has always been hardwired ethernet cable. Quick search does not identify a wifi connection that will work with Sony other than what Sony sells. Amazon shows it at $64.95.

I'm really not sure. On the description for the wifi dongle your model isn't listed and everywhere I looked it said your TV should have come with a wifi dongle. Worse case scenario buy it and return it I suppose. I can't find anything about the particular wifi dongle for your TV though.

It should as long as you have enough cable to reach the unit from your router. Make sure to

No it will not work. It only has 1 HDMI output. You may be able to buy an adapter cable that converts an HDMI CABLE to standard component cables, but not sure if that even exists, nor would the quality of Bluray show through standard cables. Your best bet would be to buy a standard DVD player with or without WI-FI depending on what you want to do. Also just throwing it out there, there DVD players that wireless connectivity, and/or ones with an Ethernet plug.Good luck!

I don't see what the wi-fi adaptor has to do with your choice of cd/dvd player. The Sony TV MUST have a Sony wiFi adaptor though, other brands do not seem to work. The Sony wifi adaptor has a pretty crappy antenna, and needs to be pretty close to your wifi router to get a good signal. I would guess you have your BluRay connected to a central receiver/amplifier with physical cable?

If the Roku player has an ethernet port, than yes it should. First you have make sure that you have properly set this device up with your wireless network, once you've done that than you just connect it to the Roku via an ethernet connection.

I do not know the answer, but I seriously doubt it. I could not get it to work with my own DVD player, so unless it is updated I would consider not buying it.

I plug it into my HDMI port on my 51 inch TV and if you have good internet, it will WIFI form your router. . However, my internet is not good enough so has yet to work but if I had good DSL or cable, then I have no doubt it would work as advertised.

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.

It can be connected directly to dvd player, IF it has an input. Most DVD players don't have input, so the answer is no.

If your machine has a WiFi adapter-card, in other words WiFi capable-this will work. If you don't have a dvd/cd drive to download from the included driver disc-I believe you can download the driver from online...
