Gees, can they make these things any smaller?? This is the third LG BluRay player that I own. They work well with LG TVs, automatically linking the two when you turn on the player. The player is wireless. Period. Its the only option for hooking up to the internet. My home has a wireless router and it was the way I planned on using the internet functions. Hooking up to the home network was relatively straight forward. You have to use an on-screen keypad but it works fine. Installing the player was easy, plug it in using an HDMI cable (sold separately) and supply power and youre done. I guess the size limits the unit to the one HDMI port, no other option for connection to a TV. Now for the reasons it only gets 3 stars. 1) there is this miniscule light on the front to tell you that the unit is on and if it isnt aimed right at you it cant be seen. 2) The software. Most of the time we use the unit to stream Netflix content and the selection software is a lot different then whats on the other two players I have. I dont know if the software is supplied by Netflix or LG but it isnt as good as the older software. Instead of the opening screen containing the instant queue it opens up with a list of whats most popular on Netflix, then New on Netflix, etc. The graphics are better, but I would prefer an easier way to get to my queue. Not user friendly.
