Connecting your Player to your home network
To view movies through your Netflix Player, you must connect your Player to your home network
using either a wireless or wired connection. Your home network must have broadband Internet
access, so that your Player can access the Internet when it is connected to your home network. A
minimum connection speed of 1.5Mbps is required. However, we recommend using a
connection that is 4.0Mbps or faster.
If you’re using a wired connection, follow these steps to connect your Player to your network. If
you’re using a wireless connection, skip ahead to the next section, “Connecting your Player to a
power source” .
1 Connect one end of a CAT5 ethernet cable to the
ethernet jack on your Player. ( You can purchase an
ethernet cables at most stores that sell computer
equipment or electronic supplies.)
2 Connect the other end of the ethernet cable to
your Internet router.
NOTE: If you’re using a wireless connection,
you don’t need to connect an ethernet
cable, so you can skip this step.
