With the blu-ray player, you are stuck with whatever apps they pre-installed on the device, and they rarely offer software updates. Today, there are hundreds of streaming apps. Once you set up the Roku, it should stay connected to your wifi network.
Sometimes the Roku will lose its connection to the internet, but unplug it for a few seconds, then plug it in again and you’re ready to go.
