Streaming Netflix on our Samsung tv.

We were sold a Samsung wireless LAN adapter by a Best Buy associate which we were told would allow us to stream Netflix on our UN46C6300SF LED tv. When we tried we were unsuccessful. We chatted with Samsung support and were told that we couldn't stream Netflix on that model because it didn't have to correct app. So who's right, Best Buy associate or Samsung support guy.

You can find it here:

  • Ipad Streaming Netflix via HDMI Cable Again

    My Ipad quit streaming Netflix to our TV through an HDMI cable in early October, right after iOS 7 and the Netflix software update came out.  Netflix issued version 5.02 in late October, and siad that fixed the problem.  But that still did not help.  Now  Applle has issued iOS 7.0.4 to fix some bugs.  They did not indicate that this was one of the bugs.  But we can now stream to the TV over the HDMI cable again.

    No.  The Videos app should work fine.

  • 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

  • Cannot stream Netflix on TV with airport at the same time.

    I have called every 800 number with an Indian accent available. I have called Comcast, Samsung, and my local Apple dealer. They all say i need to call each other's support network. No help. They just read from a computer a response that I have by now memorized. I'm about to send my new Samsung 2500 back to Amazon.
    Here's the deal: I have a Comcast modem for internet and phone. I have a Netgear router. I have a Samsung Blu-ray 2500 DVD player that streams NetFlix and I have Airport Express. After hours of fidgeting, I have finally figured out that I can either stream NetFlix or get internet for my MacBook but not both. Period. So, I can run my Airport wireless or my Netflix on TV but not both. I am somewhat techno impaired but in some of the discussions someone mentioned that you cannot have two IP addresses for one cable OR you cannot have one IP address and run NetFlix and surf the web on your laptop. The second seems absurd. In the very fine print, Samsung says that some IP's will not let you stream NetFlix. Does anyone know if that is true with Comcast? Comcast themselves didn't know (honest! - at least not the boiler plate email I got back said they didn't). It honestly starts to get funny when I go through all the set up online with my Samsung and then they give me a password to start streaming movies. BUT, to do this, I must disconnect my Samsung to get online with my laptop to plug in the password. By the time I do that, the password time has expired! LOL!! Besides, I don't even think it would work by the time I switched back to "live" NetFlix. So, I have all this stuff and I still can't watch a movie on TV.

    I guess that there is 2 possibilities that I can think of.
    One is that you are using a single IP address and only one device is getting it at any given time. However with a router I would not think that this is the issue. But just to be sure... I am assuming that the Netgear router's WAN/Internet port is connected to the Comcast modem. The Netgear router should be configured with it's DHCP services enabled. I am assuming that the AirPort Express (AX) is connected via Ethernet to one of the Netgear router's LAN ports. The AX should be configured to act as a bridge (not sharing a single IP address).
    The other possibility is that the bandwidth is getting entirely consumed by the Samsung Blu-ray and the MacBook has no opportunity to get any data.

  • Streaming Netflix through Apple TV

    My question is simple: will I be able to stream Netflix 'Watch Instantly' films thorough an Apple TV, to watch on my big screen?

    In the future, I wish there would be a standard streaming system which any piece of hardware could connect to. I have Netflix and use a Samsung Blu-Ray DVD player to stream Netflix to my HDTV. I unplugged my AppleTV as Netflix subscription-based service offers much more in terms of price to content ratio. For $8.99/mo I get unlimited streaming over over 12,000 titles.
    For Music, I think people would like to own the material, but for most people, owning movies isn't as important. A song is 3 minutes, a movie 2 hours. How many times will you watch a movie vs listening to a song? I feel Subscription-based services are the future, and Apple should get on the wagon soon. I'd be paying Apple rather than Netflix if they offered it to me.

  • I am unable to stream Netflix to my Iphone or Apple TV, from my wireless router . . . even though I am able to watch Netflix on my WII (also wireless) and desktop computer (not wireless).

    I am unable to stream Netflix to my Iphone or Apple TV, from my wireless router . . . even though I am able to watch Netflix on my WII (also wireless) and desktop computer (not wireless).
    On the Iphone and Apple TV I can connect to Netflix . . . it recognizes me and my account settings . . . and I can veiw all my recent programs and show titles, descriptions, etc..  But when I select one to watch I get a message saying:
    "ERROR A PROBLEM OCCURED WHILE PLAYING THIS ITEM. TRY AGAIN LATER, OR SELECT A DIFFERENT ITEM. GO TO WWW.NETFLIX.COM/SUPPORT FOR MORE INFORMATION. (139)
    Netflix support say there is nothing wrong on their end . . . that it is an Apple issue.  They see the request for the show, the devices are registered . . . but it shows 0 bandwidth to the device.
    My Apple TV did this when I first hooked it up a couple of weeks ago.  Then after a few days started working with Netflix, for no apparent change . . . now doesn't again for the past couple of days (I think that it auto restarted the other night after a virus scan).
    Very frustrating, and driving me nuts!  Has anyone else had and been able to resolve this problem?

    Troubleshooting
    Apple TV2 update one day and netflix is browsing but not launching the actual content (error 139)
    Ipad2 (another ios device) forces me to update netflix if I want to use it and I get the same error 139 on it.
    **** now I have two not ways not working where prior to some update it was fine.
    Nintendo Wii is still working ( mind you running an ancient version of netflix )  Dusted the Wii off and gave it to the kids use.  Now they are happy again...
    PC is also still working ( using some other flash client ) but that's just of interest, we're not going to be watching tv with that.
    My wife's iphone 4s is still working.  Odd.. still ios but for somereason I am not forced to update the version. So basically she could mirror stream up to the apple tv with it.  Nice feature of Ios5.  Later found out it is using 1.4 version of netflix.  The most useful thing out of that is that all 3 of the devices are Ios and it was actually the iphone with the 1.4 version of netflix that still worked!
    I heard from a friend who was on a different ISP he was still working so I took my appletv2 and ipad2 over to my brothers house who is on that same ISP as my friend and both started working.  So the ISP is involved too!
    Brought the appletv2 and ipad2 back to my house hoping it would maybe still work.  No dice   Broken again.
    Searched the appstore for a decent packet analyzer and there isn't really anything.  I was able to sniff the traffic with my PC and also on my juniper ssg5 confirmed that.  Turns out port 80 traffic is actually failing and authorization is not happening.  The other clients do not do this...
    Asked a buddy from work who used to work at the ISP if he could make a call to some one who might actually know what is going on.  He came back pretty quick and said yea they are trying really hard to get the beta patch in from Bluecoat asap. 
    So knowing that it was actually Netflix that changed when it hit 2.0 and in my case the ISP made the adjustment it's pretty safe to say this issue is going to be ongoing unless netflix changes again the way they authorize for licenses.
    So that's the summary of what went right down the troubleshooting path but I'll tell what what didn't
    2 calls to Netflix (useless... waste of time... they are too quick to blame anyone but themselves)
    1 call to apple support (support call was going to cost more than it cost for me to change ISPs)
    2 calls to ISP (through the normal means - regular support number)
    So why is this intermittantly working sometimes?  If you are lucky enough to authorize to an IP address that is not cached they voila you are going to get an authorization / a license to watch the show.  Some people report after defribulating their appletv (reseting, rebooting, dns changes, you name it) they get it working.  Over the past month we all seem to have got it working for some period of time only to lose it a day to two later.
    It's now been several days since the beta patch to the bluecoat and 4 of us who have been communicating on the issue appear to be online all at the same time for those several days and that is a good sign that we might be out of the woods on the issue.
    Hope this turns into something helpful for someone else out there.

  • How can I stream Netflix on Apple TV

    How can I stream Netflix to Apple TV? On Apple TV Internet setting shows you tube but not Netflix.

    You'll need to make sure you have the new black small AppleTV and not the original one.
    If you do have the new one, you can make sure to do any of the software updates from the settings menu (I think.. I don't have one to reference).
    It appears under the Internet tab and is very clearly on the list.

  • Is there a way to stream netflix from I phone to my TV?

    Is there a way I can Stream Netflix from my I phone to my TV?

    Buy an Apple tv or get the appropriate cables to connect your phone to the tv.

  • Streaming Netflix from an Ipod Touch to a TV

    I want to stream Netflix from my iPod touch 2G via composite av cable to a TV and it isn't working. I can stream music videos so I know the av cable is good and I tried changing the video settings. Any suggestions? I already have an Apple TV but I want to be able to stream this to a different TV.

    I believe the Netflix app prevents video output from i-devices. Not all apps can output video, and in this case it may be a film distribution requirement that Netflix needs to comply with, silly as that may sound since you can stream Netflix from ATV.

  • Trying to stream netflix from iPad to tv...not working...have av and hdmi hooked up...?????

    trying to stream netflix from iPad to tv, but not working...settings in iPad, or something?

    Sorry, totally missed that. Can you give some information about what is happening when you plug your iPad to the TV?
    For example, does normal mirroring work (i.e., do you see your iPad home screen on the TV when you plug it)? Does any application other than netflix (be it a game or another streaming application) work? Do you get an error? Does it just show a white/black/blank screen on your iPad and TV?

  • What cable do I need to purchase to stream netflix from iPad air to my television?

  • Can I stream Netflix from iPad to iTV?

    is there a reason iPad won't stream Netflix to iTV?  I heard you can send it via hardwire from an iPad.

    Hey .. no blasting intended (sorry if my post came across as harsh).
    I was just trying to shed some light upon a legitimate reason as to why someone would want to "AirPlay" (streaming or not as I explained) NetFlix through to AppleTV.
    As it stands, if I want to accomplish the above, I have to basically set up the movie from scratch (save the "find the spot where I am in the film" of course, as there is the "resume" feature of course).
    Being able to walk in your front door (or walk down from a bedroom/kitchen) and BLIP NetFlix right onto the screen with a simple touch of an icon would be quite nice.
    But then again, I guess manually turning the AppleTV on, clicking over to NetFlix, going to "recently watched", clicking the movie, then clicking "Resume" .. isn't THAT big of a deal. But still.
    Know what I mean?
    But again, in no way was I meaning to offend. People like you are the back-bone of support forums! So kudos to you ten folds!
    Still hoping to edit a favorites list and the history though! Mind boggeling why this hasn't been implemented yet. From what I gather, you have to cancel your subscription and re-subscribe to clean your history. Ludicrous! And even then, it erases ALL your history, not just the films you happened to look into and happened to skip. Now my history is littered with random movies that technically are NOT movies I've watched. In effect, my history is actually a useless feature due to this (for the most part). Ahh frustrations with seemingly simple technology.
    Just venting really. It's another issue altogether, yeah?
    Cheers!

  • Stream netflix on iPad 3rd gen to TV without HDMI

  • WET610N and streaming Netflix or Windows 7 Media Center

    I am trying to find out if I can use the WET610N to stream Netflix, my Windows 7 Media Center and DirecTV VOD to my HDTV.
    Also, what is the best way  to configure: 1) use the CD or 2) let the DirecTV HD DVR 
    Hardware: Linksys Router, wireless PC with WIndows 7 and Media Center, Panasonic HDTV, DirecTV DVR and I'd like to  get the above mentioned to work.
    Thanks. HmS-PA

    The best way to configure your WET610N is to connect the WET to the Router and run the setup disk on your computer and configure all the settings on it (SSID, Channel, Security Key).... Once you are done with all these configuration changes, then you need to Unplug the Power and the Ethernet Cable from the Bridge and then, connect the Bridge to your DirecTV HD DVR and then plug the power to the WET...
