I agree that you should definitely do the things in Post No. 3 before using the method in Post No. 2. But, if you got a new blu-ray player, they should have already been done. I assume you have other devices that are connected to the wifi network?

I have had several Sony blu-ray players over the years. They are not very useful for streaming because they only have a few built-in apps, the software is rarely updated, and you cannot add additional streaming apps. It would not be worth paying someone to fix it. A Roku streaming stick would be much more functional for less money. I would only keep the blu-ray player for playing discs. I use mine for playing discs and for playing music from a flash drive, but not streaming.
