Restored Sony BDPS1700 Streaming Blu-Ray Disc Player, WIRED Internet Connection (Refurbished)

I bought a blu-ray DVD by mistake on line. So I needed a blu-ray player. I when to Wal-mart and bought a Sony blu-ray player. And the sun has been shining ever since...D

This was given to me as a gift, paperwork did not mention to use HDM2 on my TV. Just a little word of advice for those of us who are technically challenged!

I have an internet supplied by Spectrum and it works well with my other wired and wireless devices but I can not get it to connect to my Blu-ray Disc. I have a LAN cable (CAT 5e) connected from the Spectrum box to the Blu-ray box. But it won't let me get a connection to the internet and consequently I can't use the futures that require a network connection.

Just now set the Sony Blu-ray Disc Player BDP-S1700. Cable connections to TV and AV receiver were easy and I was able to play a DVD fairly quickly. Audio and video quality are great. But remote does not control TV Volume and wireless network connection doesn't work either. Sony needs to provide better online setup help. This is the 21st century, everyone expects wireless integration.

Just bought this model. Can't get it to recognize that it should connect to WiFi. Network status is locked in "wired". Also, it does not remember where DVD program left off when stop button is accidentally hit instead of pause. Starts from the beginning of the disc. Very annoying. Stop and Pause buttons are next to each other on this tiny remote. Not a good design of either the remote or the operation. Not up to my expectations for a Sony product.

There are no external buttons on the machine to push in order to operate without the remote. We had the machine for a month when the batteries stop working. Make sure you have plenty of batteries and don't lose the remote. Without a working remote, the machine is worthless.

I am unable figure out how to access my Netflix account via this unit. The installation process is complicated and esoteric. I can only give the following ratings because I am frustrated.

I received the BDP-S1700 as an Anniversary Gift from work. I've used it 3 times and on the 3rd time I get a msg that states "[Eject] key is currently unavailable. To enable, cancel Child Lock Mode. I went on the Sony website and tried the fix that they have with no luck. I've recently tried to do a system software update hoping that would fix the problem but the internet download fails as well as trying to use the USB port to update. I've seen online that this is a common problem with this model. If it worked I think it'd be a great product as I like what it had to offer however having problems with only using it 3 times & seeing so many posts of other people having the same problem if frustrating. I'm writing this in case anyone is thinking of purchasing the product and is doing their research.

My first one, bought in April 2016, died while on warranty. The second one, sent by you a couple of weeks ago, is erratic (i.e., will announce "no disc" while the disc is inside, will require unplugging and replugging, etc)

The gaming feature is non existent. Trash companies
