Could I Connect a Sony BDP-S350 with a PS3 Via Ethernet? - Blu-ray Forum

L32GTPCompG · 10-18-2008, 09:44 PM

I finally got around to setting up my S350 today along side my PS3. I was wondering if I could just connect the ethernet cable from the back of the S350 to the ethernet port on the back of the PS3. I would them be able to use the wireless router on the PS3 to get all of my BD Live data. Could this work?

No. Because the PS3 is not made to work like a server.

OK, thanks. How do most of you guys get you BD Live data? Do just run the ethernet line from your BD player to your computer's network card?

you need a router

turboLAZER is right. The connection should be

Telephone or Cable modem------>router--------->computer, PS3, etc.

OK, so it looks like I just have to run the ethernet line from my S350 to my PC's wireless receiver ethernet connection.

no. run an ethernet cable from the s350 direct to one of the four outputs on the router. the s350 does NOT connect to your PC at all
