How to connect dvd player to wireless network?




ricky c


I have a sony dvd player in my living room. The dvd play only has hdmi and ethernet inputs and supports Netflix. I was wondering how to connect the dvd player to the wireless modem i have in the other room. I'm completely lost.


Answer
Your DVD Player doesn't have wireless capabilities, but supports a network connection. You have several options

1. Move your router
2. Move your DVD player
3. Run a long cable to the router
4. Buy yourself one of those wireless devices that'll give you a jack right there at the player
5. Set a laptop near the player & ad hoc the network
6. Wire your entire house with network (be sure to put a jack by the player)
7. Buy a wireless dvd player & sell the one you got
8. Setup an additional router as a repeater & set it next to your player
9. Scrap the idea all together, go get a roku or a ps3 to watch netflix
10. That's bout all I got right now.

Connecting a DVD player to a laptop?

Q. I just bought a laptop for school next year. Someone who was very good with computers reccomended a couple to me and I ended up picking up a Dell but I can't remember the exact type. It looks like it does not have a place where you can put CDs/DVDs and I already signed up for netflix for next year. My question is, is there a type of inexpensive dvd player or something you could buy that you plug into the laptop and allows you to use cds or play dvds on the laptop?


Answer
Yes, they are called external DVD Drives.. The one I will link in this answer is only $40 and reads and writes both CD's and DVD's
