| Blu-ray player - wireless adapter? I'm looking to get a blu-ray player. All of the ones I'm looking at do BD Live and have Ethernet ports but none of them are wireless. Does anyone have any experience of using a wireless adapter/bridge with a blu-ray player? |

| Re: Blu-ray player - wireless adapter? Ok. I've set up internal wireless adapters and our laptops have internal ones but I've never had cause to buy an ethernet/wireless bridge adapter, so I'm not sure if there's anything to look out for. Are there different types? Any known to be better than others? [Edit] Just had a thought: it's going to be right near my HTPC - is there any mileage in getting a bridge with > 1 port (if such a thing exists, or using a hub) and sharing it between the blu-ray and the HTPC? Is that likely to work better than having two wireless devices in such close proximity? Last edited by Piman; 02-05-2009 at 07:19 PM.. Reason: Another option occurred to me |
