Hi,
Thanks Colin; Lawrence and Joe. I might indeed have to admit defeat in the end Joe but at the moment I'm too dim to quit so I'll battle on further. If you did mislead me earlier Colin it went straight over my head and your intentions are always good anyway.
I'm incredibly behind the times when it comes to modern electronics even kids at school know a great deal more that I do about the subject. I will stick with this longer though because I'm learning and already know more than I did a couple of days ago about WiFi and blue-ray.
It's still possible Virgin Media can help in some way; how do wireless tablets and lap tops receive signals whilst away from home? Do these devices work on a travelling train being connected to the Internet? Wouldn't the new DVD connect the current NTL router to the TV allowing Internet to be shown via Ethernet cable assuming I had a cable long enough? These are possibly stupid questions but I learn a great deal by asking stupid questions. Whats the point in spending £99.99 for an electronic device if only a small section of the device is usable; how do home cinemas work are lots of these connected to the Internet?
There is so much information to absorb in the DVD manual regarding things I've never heard of like "Allshare"; what about Wi-Fi Direct using peer to peer network without a wireless router; I already spend a lot of time on peer to peer for downloading free movies and videos on my PC but this is mentioned on page 30 in the manual? On page 29 it states I can get network values from my Internet provider? I don't understand "Network" but there is so much to this DVD player to understand hence I'm asking you experts whilst also trying to help myself; I simply don't give up easily?
No gain without pain and I suffer plenty of pain once I start something like this but it's never boring and I'm pleased to read all your views and suggestions which are most welcome.
Kind regards, Col.
