Connecting Samsung BD-C6500 wireless DVD to WRT160N v2 router

The Samsung device connects to the router but WILL NOT connect to the internet saying that the HTTP port is blocked. HTTP port is not blocked in the router as best I can tell. I have upgraded the firmware and reset to factory defaults. My TIVO and two wireless computers all connect to the internet just fine.
 I had one Samsung DVD player that initially connected via the router. It downloaded info and  I watched Netflix movies. then it stopped connecting and when I attempted to reconfigure the IP, DNS, etc it started giving me this type of error. I replaced the player with a new one but I get the same" HTTP blocked" error message...this player also initially appeared to connect to the internet but then stopped moments later. ISP says there are no problems on their end. Samsung says its the router or the ISP not their machine.
HELP

Well if you are getting that error message on your Samsung DVD Player then you can try to open the HTTP Port on your router an check if its working or not.
To open the ports on your Router, you need to login to the setup page of your Router and click on the Application and Gaming tab and below under "Port Forwarding"
Application Name               Start Port              End Port                  Protocol              IP Address                             Enable
Samsung                                 80                         80                            BOTH        IP of Samsung DVD Player          Enable.
And click on Save Settings...
Once are done then unplug the power from the router and modem, wait for 30sec and then first plug the power to the modem and once all the lights are lid on the Modem then you can plug the power to the Linksys Router.
Now you can check if you are getting the same error message on your Samsung DVD Player.

    Have tried to hardwire and wirelessly connect my samsung tv to my home hub 3.0. I have tried to use wps to connect, to set up with auto settings and to set up manually.

    I have used the gateway as DNS Server and have also tried the primary DNS number found under Broadband heading in BT Home Hub.

  • RE: Network Connect of a WMP100N Wireless card Thru a WRT54G Router

    Well, I disabled the Zonealarm personal firewall. No change in connectivity. The card acquires the router, has super signal strength, and no internet. I've even tried re-doing the connection profile. I have noticed a minor difference in security settings. The router is configured WPA with PSK using TKIP + AES. The card gives me the option of either TKIP or AES (not the plus) Probably doesn't matter since the card only acquires the router when TKIP is chosen. I have also noticed when I tried using the rightclick repair option that windows lists encryption as disabled. If the card security settings match that of the router and access is established, isn't encryption enabled? Re-enabled the wired card and immediately established and internet connection. Am lost as to why I can't get internet thru the wireless card. There is an IP address and standard subnet mask. There just is a blank gateway, DNS and etc.

    Well, I may have made a mistake. I spent some time on Live Chat with no real success. After all that, I decided to update firmware for the router. Here's where I may have goofed. Rather than use the old way to update, I used the linksys upgrade application. It did upgrade the router. Unfortunately, it seems to have corrupted my OS installation. I can't get XP (SP2) to properly shutdown. It goes partway thru the process, then I hear a click, the fans start whirring and it reboots. I end up having to push and hold the power button for shut off. Not a good solution. Any ideas? I am considering uninstalling the wireless card and doing a system restore pre-card. (BTW, the wireless card worked after the firmware update (although the connection does drop fairly often without any other 2.4 competing devices)

    We just installed our new all in one modem/wireless router that we received from Verizon yesterday.  The computers connected fine but our HP Photosmart D110 wireless printer will not connect.  We tried many different things.  It connects fine when using the new D-Link with our old wireless router connected.  It will also connect to the modem if there is no security encryption.  Does anyone know how to solve this problem?  Thank you!

  • Trouble connecting samsung DVD to wireless network

    I am trying to connect my samsung 4600 to my router wirelessly.  I can see my network in the list of networks but the DVD player says unable to connect.  I know the password is correct because I dc'd a laptop I use on the network and retyped the password and it works fine.  Additionally, if I connect it using a wire it works fine.  Also, I can connect to my neighbors network because theirs is not password protected.  So how can I get this DVD player to connect to my network wirelessly, please help =)

  • 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!

  • Connecting Samsung Wireless Printer w/MacBook

    Im having great difficulty trying to set up wireless printing between my MacBook and a Samsung ML-2955DW wireless printer. I wanted to check in on these forums first, before calling Samsung, because, admittedly, I need help with the basics. And, I would like to gain a better understanding about what it is Im supposed to be doing before speaking with them.
    The "Players" are as follows:
    -MacBook 2GHZ Intel Core2 Duo... w/System 10.5.8
    -(2006) PowerMac G5... w/System 10.4.11
    -Samsung ML-2955DW Printer
    -Airport Express Brick 802.11n
    -Realtek WLAN Wireless Wifi USB Adapter
    My first question is... is this even possible with the set-up that I have? My G5 does not have Airport built in. I had to buy the Wireless Wifi USB Adapter to plug into the back so that my MacBook could link with it.
    I was going with the notion that it is possible and tried to set-up the printer according to what the Samsung instruction book calls an Infrastructure Mode Set Up; that is–connecting to the printer via a router. For this set-up they show a diagram where the supplied USB cable connnects directly into the back of the Desktop computer.  The directions continue with how to change the IP address, Subnet Mask, etc... and then they end. So am I to assume that if I am able to complete the installation process to my Desktop computer I will then be able to install the driver on my MacBook and be able to print wirelessly? I have tried this method with no success at all.
    The furthest I got with trying to get a connection was by following directions posted on MacRumors for another wireless Samsung model. They instructed connecting the printer directly to the computer with an ethernet cable (not sure if they meant to connect to the desktop or laptop, I connected it to my desktop, as it wouldnt work at all connecting it to the laptop). I was able to get the IP, Subnet, etc.. info from the printer by doing this and changing it to my network settings via their Sync thru Web method. However, in the end, I could not change the TCP/IP setting to DHCP or set up the wireless printing.
    Thank you in advance for any help with this, I can surely use it.

    This is for Snow Leopard, which you show you're using - might be of some help. I have a Canon MG8120 which I print to with ease (scan, too). During your setup, you should have had the printer 'seen' on the network.

  • Connecting Samsung Blu Ray BD-D6700 to wireless network

    I got the Samsung BD-D6700 Blu Ray for Xmas and have not been able to set it up wirelessly, it doesn't see my network. Tried contacting Samsung support but they seem to think it is my Fios Router. Has anybody else had this issue and if so how did you fix?

    I had that problem, and it was the wireless broadcast channel in the router. 1,6&11 are the only ones to chose from. Login to your router by opening a webpage and going to 192.168.1.1
    This page will help if you dont know your router password ( http://www22.verizon.com/ResidentialHelp/fiosinternet/networking/troubleshooting/questionsone/123899 )
    The channel can be found at the first column called "change wireless settings"

  • Connecting Samsung 5500 TV to WI42WR router

    I bought a Samsung UN48H5500AF television.
    I am trying to connect wirelessly to my MI42WR verison router.
    The TV sees my wireless network, however when I attempt to join the network I am unable.
    The setup asks for the router PW, but the error message says the PIN is wrong.  This mixing of terms is confusing.
    I can connect to, and manage, my router through my PC. So its not a PW issue.
    Any help would be appreciated!

    PIn would imply it things you are trying to connect via WPS which the Verizon version of the Actiontec router does not currently support.  Note the passphrase(sometimes called password) is normally a combination of letters, numbers, and special characters.  Letters are case sensitive.
    Pass keys are normally listed in Hexadecimal (i.e number 0-9,a-f) The a-f represent 10-15 in hexadecimal and are not case sensitive.

  • R51 - Access Connections vs win xp wireless

    Hi!
    I've been using ThinkPads for years but this is the first time I have posted to the Lenovo forum.
    I just installed ThinkVantage Access Connections on my very old R51 (2004 but still going strong!) using the new and improved SystemUpdate.  After re-booting I was unable to make the wireless connection to my home network.  Strange, as it was working just fine before using the old IBM Access Connection.  After muddling around some I tried uninstalling my wireless card and letting win xp do an auto-reinstall after re-booting.  Well that did the trick - I can now connect wirelessly to my home network and the internet. 
    However, Access Connections thinks that my wireless drivers are still improperly installed.  My systray wireless icon shows a strong connection but the Access Connection icon indicates I am not connected.  I've decided to ignore Access Connections (removed it from my systray) and just let win xp manage my wireless connections.  But if there is a way to fix this I would like to go back to using Access Connections.  The old  version was working just fine in managing my different wireless connection profiles.
    Browsing the forums it looks as if a number of others are having similar issues with Access Connections and their wireless network connections.  I wonder if Lenovo needs to put out a fix via System update.

  • WRT160N N Router extremely slow connection

    i just bought a WRT160N N Router.  i have a 12 mb/s connection.  i bought it through best buy and the sales rep told me it could handle that speed no problem.  well i got home and got it set up, not even close to being able to handle that speed.  i know you lose a little bit of speed by going to a router verse plugging the ethernet cable in direct but this is rediculous.  pages are loading extremely slow, and when i torrent something when i was plugged in direct i was averaging about 1.3 mb/s.  with the router which is sitting 6 feet from me at the moment im getting 80 kb/s at best.  was i told wrong by the sales rep?  am i doing something wrong? 
    im running a Dell 1535 Studio Laptop with Vista.  thank you for your time.  any help is great.

  • Hard wired PC losing internet connection with WRT160N V2 Router

    I'm new to routers and I just added a WRT160N (V2) router.  The wireless connection through my laptop is great. However, I have 1 PC physically connected to the router. The internet connection is sporadic on this PC. I have high speed "wireless" internet service and sometimes you click on the internet or check e-mail and there is no internet connection. It seems to be after the PC has sat idle for a while. When you click the internet, the PC icon on the router does not even blink - its like the PC and router are not talking. If it does connect, the connection is great. Any help would be appreciated!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    There is a known issue with intermittent connectivity and the Build 11 firmware for the WRT160N V2. Build 11 is the current firmware on the Linksys site. Check to see if you have Build 11 if your router is a V2.
    Downgrading to Build 8 is generally accepted to correct these issues, however Linksys have indicated to several people they do not have the build 8 firmware to give to end users.
    This is ONLY for WRT160N V2 routers. This firware will not work on WRT160N V1.

  • Issue in connecting to the internet wireless with my Linksys

    OK. Here's the deal. I am entirely frustrated and also over my head trying to solve this on my own as I have no idea what I'm doing.
    I have a Mac Powerbook, OS X (3.9). I have always connected to the internet wirelessly through my Linksys router (Wireless B Access Point, Model Wap 11).
    I have recently moved and now use Comcast for my internet. When they installed my internet, I had not yet unpacked my wireless router, so I was set up to be connected via the actual cable plugged in. Now that the router is all set up, I cannot for the life of me get my wireless to work. Currently, I can use the internet wirelessly in other homes/school no problem. In those cases, I don't do anything, I just turn on my computer and it connects automatically. But for some reason in my apartment I cannot make it work.
    I *think* the problem lies somewhere in the IP address area? If I look at my Airport settings and go to the TCP/IP tab, there is no information contained on the screen. Meaning, in the area where it says IP Address, Subnet Mask and Router, there is NO data listed, just gray empty space. The same goes for the DNS Servers and Search Domains areas, but at least in that case there is a white box to input text.
    I can choose the "Configure IPv4 Using DHCP Manually" and that will let me input numbers, but I have no idea if I should even be playing around with this.
    Also, perplexing me even more, is the fact that I can choose my Linksys internet connection through the Airport screen, and when I have selected it, I show full bars. But I can't actually connect.
    Silly me, I attempted to call Comcast for help with the issue, but they say that as long as I can connect to the internet in any way (plugged in) then they do not care that I can't connect wirelessly.
    I miss checking my email in bed...someone please help!!!
    Thanks a million in advance for any and all help.

    Are u talking about routers username , password? Well there is one routers username ,password (default is "admin") and the other is your cable ISP username , password (on the routers webpage). I am talking about the latter. If nothing works, try resetting your router ... You will have to configure it again (doesnt take much time if you know it).
