Product shows blue rays in fine quality which is good but the main reason I purchased it was to stream Netflix etc. I couldn't get that to work properly with WiFi even though it connected to the network. After weeks of research and failed attempts I broke down and bought a streaming box and it was the easiest thing to set up. So I should have just bought a cheap blue ray that didn't have WiFi and I'd have been much better off.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello jream21,
We apologize or any inconvenience cause by this unit and would like to recommend to try the steps available through the following link before you try this steps make sure that your download speed is no less than 2.5 mbps to be able to play standard content or 10 mbps for HD content :
Good BluRay player, works well and has lots of options. However, it does not work well with the universal remote that I use. It will turn on/off, but nothing else. Otherwise good product

Hello geokahler! We would like to recommend to follow the steps available through the following link:
I received this Blu-Ray player as a Christmas gift. It has performed flawlessly. I also like the built-in web interface to access both paid and free programming through the unit. So far, so good!
Out of the box & ready to go in a matterof minutes. How much easier could it get....Tha apps are easy to work & simple to understand. So good I boughta second one. If you can find one, get it.
The blu-ray works very well. However, when watching streaming content, the remote control operation is slow and unresponsive. We get VERY frustrated trying to pause as this usually starts and stops the program multiple times until the player settles on what it wants to do.
Also, when switching from DVD to steaming, we not only have to turn it off, we sometimes have to unplug the unit to get it to work properly.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
