Using Wired vs. Wireless on S560: Do I need to disable the wireless for BD Live to connect to the wired connection?

Yes. By trying to use both you are creating an Ethernet loop. Ethernet is a point to point technology. Your router sees the same MAC address on two different links

No, it does not need to be wired to your router. In fact, there is no way to direct connect to your router anyway. It will connect to your network from wherever it is placed.

yes, this is how I am using it too. I have two wired computers on the WD switch which then connects to a wired port on the wireless router. All work fine.

All wireless and wired controllers have different MAC addresses so the S560 should also have two different MAC addresses.

I agree it's ambiguous. Based on the price (vs. wired 12.12.12, which is about $35) I agree with Neil I that it is the wireless model. I ordered mine from another Amazon merchant (Brooks Merchant) and it was a few dollars higher. If you did get it and it turned ought to be the wired model you would have strong grounds for returning it.

Yes you can use both wired and wireless at the same time with this printer.I initially set it up via USB to a win7 machine and subsequently to 2 wireless win 7's and an XP machine using a wireless adapter.It works flawlessly, but won't wake on LAN, so you have to make sure it is on. Extend the time before "auto off" for best results.

No, but it connects very easily over wired ethernet and with a NAS device, you want it to be connected to your network so you get the quickest response time. You probably wouldn't want to suffer the speed penalty that comes with a wireless connection.

The connection on mine is wired. I picked up a wireless sub with mine and have the OWM for front left and right Channels. GREAT sound quality!

I would assume so. You should be able to just disable the built in wireless.

It depends on which model you purchase. The DN model supports Ethernet but not wireless. To get built in wireless support you will need to buy the DW version.

Update: This thread got me wired just now...Wireless is in the works. [ndiswrapper isn't so friendly to this one for some reason - perhaps I nabbed the wrong wireless driver..]http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7409939

No, you don't. Connection can be wireless if your cable provider has you set up with a wireless modum, or similar set up.

I haven't used DNLA... as far as wireless sharing from home my PS3 connects to it wirelessly and will automatically change the input when turned on (kind of nice). My other devices had more trouble, wound up having to hard wire my Jambox (bluetooth) to the TV because I couldn't figure out how to wirelessly connect the two... same with my iPhone. User error? Possibly, but I'm not a schlub when it comes to technology and I made several varying set up attempts.

Yes, as long as it is set up that way. I believe B/G compatibility is set as default. On the router GUI, see the Wireless &gt; General tab for the b/g protection checkbox.

It has a standard ethernet connector and works with both wired and wireless networks. I've used it with both without any issues.

I was able to resolve connectivity issue with wired connection. My printer connected to my router using ethernet cable. I couldn't connect printer to router wireless even after two hours with Samsung support. Also I have to use Samsung Easy printer manager on each of my computers every time I turn off/on my router. I know it is problem with router, not with a printer. I still recommend this printer for anyone who consider it.

You DO NOT need a wireless connection unless you can not connect directly with an Ethernet cable. It has an Ethernet port and is wireless WI-FI.I am using it wireless via DSL and a wireless router.If you get a wireless router get the fastest 1 gigabit.ASUS makes a good one available on AMAZON. With a wireless router you can use it for your wireless printer/scanner Smart phone and visiting lap tops or your own. I would connect directly to the Ethernet port if I had a wire available or could easily run one. The devise works great and the quality with HDMI is very good.
