Anyone connected a Samsung BD-C6500 blu ray to Airport Extreme?

Hi all
I have reached the end of my rope trying to this to work.
I have gotten the blu ray to see the network, and get to gateway ping - but then nothing.
I read that the apple extreme password is not quite up to snuff so I increased the length of the password - and it got further but no connection to internet.
So I tried it with no security and that does not work at all.
So - any ideas to get these two to get along?
thank you
Sean

I am on my second Samsung BD-C6500 and still not successful or happy. Especially with the password entering process you describe. How ancient is Samsung's interface? Replacing the entered letter with a * immediately after entry is maddening enough. But when entering numbers, the actual number never does show on-screen. Samsung customer service is a joke. The "techs" are not knowledgeable, don't speak English well or clearly and don't seem to give a crap whether or not the problem get resolved. Even getting "moved up" to second-level tech support was no better. Plus in the two weeks I've owned the two units I've had to download three software updates (now using 1013.4)--when I could get connected, that is!!! I was hopeful that one of these updates would fix the connection problem but that apparently was wishful thinking.
My first Samsunge would not retain my password--and that was after a dozen or more attempts to connect wirelessly with my Airport Extreme over a five-day period. So I took it back to Best Buy. The second unit is not much better. I can connected successfully, watch a movie on Netflix then turn everything off. Next day, when I try to connect, it says I don't have an internet connection.
Apple tech support suggested I change the Airport options on RADIO MODE from "Automatic" to "802.11 a/n - 802.11. b/g". That temporarily solved the problem but still does not ensure the Blu-Ray player will connect the next time I want internet access. It still seems to be hit or miss.
When this connection works, it's a joy. Especially when using Netflix to watch movies instantly. But my wife is slowly losing her patience with my frustrations and is willing to pay Comcast $6 or so to watch one of their movies instead. Their connection may be simpler but the search process is from an earlier decade!
I would appreciate any other suggestions you have. Thanks!

Samsung Blu-Ray player, Airport Extreme network, and streaming Netflix

I am very frustrated. Can you help? My husband just purchased a Samsung Blu-Ray BD-P3600 player and TV. I have read all of the forums on trying to connect this to an Airport Extreme network. After several days of trying different options, I still can not get the Blu-Ray player to connect to my network and be able to stream Netflix. The only way that I have gotten close is through the wireless connection devise and putting in the IP address etc. When doing a network test, if checks the MAC Address and the IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, DNS Server. It then pauses for a long time and tells me that the Gateway Ping won't work. It says, "Your network cannot operate properly." I have not had any trouble connecting any computers or printers to the network. Why can I not get this to work? Please tell me what I am doing wrong. I know just enough to be dangerous. Thank you!

Hi - I found this on CNET but not a techie so not sure if this will work - I have Airport Extreme & just bought 2 Samsung Blu-Ray BD-P3600 players to use w/NetFlix and have called Samsung tech support 3 times w/no luck - the last time the technician said that Apple/Samsung WIFI not compatible - I have a 13 character pswd so that my roommate who has a PC can connect - we don't have any problems with any other connections to Airport Extreme -
Post today from CNET discussion on same topic:

found this about setting up a psp with airport should help:
"Apple does not mandate that your WEP password is the correct length. In the real world of WEP (non Apple devices) they actually require that your WEP key is a specified length dependent on the bit level of encryption. If you are using HEX or ASCII encoding these passwords can get as high as 26 to 40 characters long. Yea, thats a long pass code! Your Mac sitting in your house doesn't care about all that mumbo jumbo. You can put any old password in the AirPort Admin utility and it will take it.
I learned over at Gaming-Age that I could get away with a 13 character WEP Key. You should, however, stick with 128 bit WEP as this is better protection, and works well with the PSP (I run my AirPort Express in 802.11b/g Compatible Mode). Once you set your WEP key and update your AirPort you can setup your PSP. Now just setup your PSP for Wi-Fi Infrastructure mode"
and this:
The trick is that to use the hexadecimal key with an Apple AirPort Card, you must enter a dollar-sign before the hex number, like
$1E2B3C4FAA

Samsung BD-D5300 Blu-ray causing IP conflicts

I just bought a Samsung BD-D5300 Blu-ray player that allows a bunch of networking options including wireless and wired. I was using the wired option when I came across some conflicts with my network using a Linksys WRT350N v1. The Samsung conflicted with the Linksys's DHCP server. The blu-ray player turns off automatically when inactive. It was causing conflicts with my iPad 2, MacBook Pro and Motorola Atrix android phone whenever it got assigned an IP address. When I reset the router and my cable modem, it wasn't assigned an address for awhile, which fixed things, but as soon as it got an address again, it was caused conflicts by being seen as a LAN by my router. When it wasn't receiving an address, it got the automatic private IP address of 169.x.x.x. When I removed the connection with my router, the conflicts disappeared and my computers were able to access my wifi again. I just sent a message to Samsung about this and I'm waiting for a response, but I thought I would post my solution here in case someone else is having the same issue.

Set a static IP address on your blue-ray.

Samsung SE-506BB Blu-Ray Player/Writer no longer working after latest OS X update

Since downloading the latest OS X update ("Command Line Developer Tools for OS X Mavericks") that rolled out today, I've discovered that my external Samsung SE-506BB Blu-Ray player will no longer read any discs and that ejecting and restarting the device and updating the device firmware does nothing to solve the problem.
This exact issue has been reported numerous times since January on these forums
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5829322 (1/26)
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5836103 (1/27)
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5895950 (2/12)
and in each instance deduced the problem to be the direct result of some software glitch in the most recent Mavericks update.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue currently and/or managed to fix it on their end? Moreover, admins, what if anything is Apple doing to correct this problem given that it's clearly a persistent issue? Please comment below if you happen to know anything so we can all get to the bottom of this mystery.

I just noticed this today with my player as well, which had otherwise been working perfectly since first purchasing it a couple of months ago.
The only source to my immediate problem that I can think of is the "Command Line Developer Tools for OS X Mavericks" update that rolled out today, which I installed shortly before attempting to boot up my drive -- the only thing I can ascertain is that this has to be an ongoing software update issue with Apple that affects some/all of the players with each problematic update round, since others have reported experiencing similar problems from as far back as January.
Were you able to fix your problem at all?

I have the older rounded airport and want to connect it to a Sony Blu-Ray via a LAN cable. Is that possible?

I have the older rounded airport and would like to connect it to a Sony blu-ray player via a LAN. Any thoughts?

I assume that your Sony Blu-ray player is network-ready and has an Ethernet port ... correct? If so, there shouldn't be any reason why it couldn't be connected to the LAN (opposing arrows) port on the 802.11g AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) to gain network/Internet access.

I am getting a "connection timeout" message when trying to access my Airport Extreme with various laptops, Play Station 3 and Wii. My Airport Extreme is about a month old; it was working fine until about a week ago. Suddenly, the "timeout" is not allowing me to connect to my wireless network.

It could be that there's a new source of interference.

Can I connect a 4 TB USB drive to the airport extreme and use it as a network drive for Time Machine

Can I connect a 4 TB USB drive to the airport extreme and use it as a network drive for Time Machine

Yes, if the drive is formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
The USB port on the Time Capsule is under powered, so you may need use a powered USB hub with the 4 TB drive...even if it has its own power supply.

How to connect Apple TV to DVD blu-ray home theatre

Hi guys, I am planning to buy Apple TV2 and I was wondering is there setup guide for connecting to HDTV and home theatre system. I currently have LG HDTV and LG DVD Blu-ray Home Theatre. They are connected with HDMI 1.3 cable and I had to get optical cable to get sound from TV to Home theatre.
How is Apple TV fits into that? I have 1 HDMI slot free on TV and 2 HDMI inputs on DVD system.
I was thinking just to connect Apple TV to DVD via HDMI? Would that put sound on home theatre system?
Thank you in advance.
ddrasko

You have read home theatre manual about playing sound from external device.
You doesn't need to connect home theatre to tv at all as you have get video from apple tv.
Connect video output from apple tv to tv(may carry sound along) and optical cable from apple tv to home theatre.
That will do. You can mute sound of tv(in case hdmi carry sound along) or using other function(on samsung ) and hear from home theatre sound from speakers.

Help with Connection Settings for Blu ray-to-Airport Express-to-TC?

I'm trying to use the network capability of my Sony Blu ray player and having no luck. I have the Blu ray connected via ethernet cable to the Airport Express, which in turn is connected wirelessly to my Time Capsule. The problem I'm having is horrendous because I'm so lame and no amount of forum or internet searching has helped.
The Blu ray network settings wants the following information:
IP Address
Subnet Mask
Default Gateway
DNS Server (Primary)
DNS Server (Secondary)
Do I get these settings from System Preferences>Network>AirPort>Advanced or do I get them from either the Airport Express or Time Capsule using AirPort Utility?
I tried giving the Blu ray player a static IP Address in Time Capsule using DHCP Reservations and the Blu ray's MAC Address, but that's not working either. Between the AirPort Express, Time Capsule, cable modem, and MacBook Air there are numbers everywhere and I just don't which set to use.

Are you trying to connect it to your AirPort Express wirelessly? (That's probably the case if your AirPort Express is your only Wi-Fi device, as its Ethernet port would be connected to your broadband modem.)
Is your AirPort Express "N"-capable? What type of encryption are you using on your network?
Have you installed the "supplied Wireless LAN Adapter"?

LAN Connection Error: Panasonic DMP-BD35 Blu Ray Player

Hello,
My Panasonic DMP-BD35 Blu Ray player has a wired LAN connection port that is used to download firmware updates.
When I was using a DLink WBR-2310 with Verizon DSL the system worked perfectly with the BD35 player wired to a LAN port on the DLink router. I recently switched to Verizon FiOS and now the BD35 player is wired to LAN port 2 on the FiOS wireless router.
The BD35 is no longer able to connect to the network now that it is wired to the FiOS router. When I run the connection test an error is returned, "Cannot obtain IP Address using DHCP." However, all of my other network devices (Wii, Laptops, Desktops, Print Router, etc.) have had no problem connecting to the router, both wirelessly and wired. I have even wired a laptop to the jack that the BD35 is using and the laptop connects just fine (wireless turned off). Also, I checked the Port Configuration screen on the router and Port 2 is showing that it is connected at 100Mbps Full-Duplex when the BD35 is on, but the device does not appear on the list of devices connected on the My Network screen.
Here are the settings on the BD35:
- IP Address Auto Configuration (DHCP) = ON
- DNS Auto Configuration (DHCP) = OFF
- Auto Detect Connection Speed = ON
Does anyone have experience with this issue? Is it possible to setup a Static IP for the BD35 in the router using the MAC Address for the BD35?
Thank you!

I'm not familiar with the Panasonic BD35 but I would suggest that you try it with DNS Auto Configuration turned on.
You may also be able to set it up with a manual address that is way out of the range of anything that you woudl normally use.
Try the following:
Check the TCP/IP Address that your PC is getting. Assuming your IP Address is set to 192.168.1.x set the Panasonic to
IP Address: 192.168.1.200
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
DNS: 192.168.1.1
The Verizon STBs will use 100 to 150 and your other DHCP Devices woudl normally use the addresses between 2 and 99.
If you still have problems try using OpenDNS and set the DNS address to 208.67.222.222.

Samsung BD-P2550 Blu-ray player

Hello,
Would a Best Buy employee be able to enlighten me whether this player was discontinued or just simply not in stock? This player is available on your website, for local pick-up. However, when you actually go to choose a store, most stores don't have any in stock. =/ It seems to be this way in a lot of Southern California, and I've even checked a state over in Arizona, and they don't seem to have any in stock. So, can anyone verify for me if this item is discontinued or simply back-ordered?
Thanks for your time and thanks in advance,
Eugene
Solved!

Thank you again for taking the time to post your experience!

I have internet service on iMac but cannot get connection for Blu ray with airport express.

Why am I not getting internet connection for blu ray on tv with airport express?

Which exact model of the AirPort Express do you have?
Did the Blu Ray player connect wirelessly to the Express before or has it never been able to connect to it at all?

Can anyone help with tips on archiving (Blu Ray) ?

I shoot on an EX1 (solid state SxS cards), and previously I'd dump all my footage to DV tape. Now I'm on MBP I've been advised to burn it all to Blu-Ray, I guess the quality would be okay but is this time consuming to transfer my masters AND all raw footage ? I know I can keep it all on HDD but I do feel happier having a physical copy in a drawer. Anyone got any good advice ?
Cheers
