Hi Bryston,

The next version of BDP (BDP-3) should have built-in Wi-Fi capability. For whatever reason, lots of people encounter Wi Fi setup issues initially (including moi). We all aren't IT experts. I think other players like Oppo (?) have this built-in capability. This is not meant as a criticism, but a constructive suggestion. I love my BDP-1, it is the one piece of gear I use the most on my floor setup, more than TT or BCD-1. Hardware and software all in one unit maybe?

Thanks.
Pete

Duly noted Pete. This is a common request. Chris built in some early wifi support into Manic Moose. It's not thoroughly tested (so, probably not 100% stable), but if you wanted to give it a try, this is a known working adapter you can plug in via USB.

Thanks, Gary. Good to know.

I'm always paranoid about changing firmware, esp. as my BDP-1 is working so well with Loony Toon or whatever.... 8-)

p.s. that wireless LAN you sent in the link does look a bit like a moose...big ears.
I'm using an ethernet-power plug by Netgear. No problems.
