Question: I see that this unit can be hooked up w/ ethernet  cable - anyone know if this can be set up completely free of wireless?
Document: We tried pressing the reset button on the back of the unit, unplugging it, turning off our TV, turning our TV back on, etc... nothing has worked. We tried hooking up the NTV300SL directly to our modem (bypassing the wireless connection) using an ethernet cable and hooked the unit directly to a small HD TV screen. Nothing. I checked the Netgear support pages, which are less than informative, for any information that could help resolve the issue.
I spent two exhausting weeks debugging this problem: I updated the firmware. I performed restarts and system resets with and without subscription resets. I checked my bandwidth (4Mb/s). I tested it with an ethernet cable and with wireless. I bypassed the router entirely and hooked it straight to the modem.
So the two units are not on the same network but completely different internet providers so they run through all the servers, etc. in their network. Yes, I have two complete internet services at my home. Reliability. I run a TiVo into the SlingBox and have had great remote success with it with SlingCatcher/Ipad/Android all across the country.I hooked the Neo unit to my Knology cable (30/3) and the HDMI TV connection.
Has both wired, and wireless ethernet connectivity options. I have the house strung with Category 6 cable / gigabit ethernet, it would be nice to be able to use it.#4. Be simple enough to use once it is set up that my wife isn't always asking me to to browse to what she wants and get a show going.This device does all that in spades. No reason to slam it here as it supports all of that, and much more than I am not likely to be using.
Also the unit provided step by step instruction once online and connected to the TV. Connecting it to my wireless network was also very easy and once connect I was streaming videos and music. I hooked up the device via the HDMI cable and was impressed by the quality and performance of the video being streamed.At times this product exceeded my expectations. I own a Insignia blue ray player that also allows for streaming Netflix and this device beat it hands down.
This device fills a niche by allowing older TVs to stream content. I set the NeoTV unit up with my older model LCD TV, that I keep in the bedroom. My bedroom TV doesn't have an ethernet port or WiFi built in and my PS3 and Xbox 360 are in the living room. I was looking for a way to stream content to this older TV and I didn't see anything like the NeoTV on the market.
The unit would not connect to my modem via the wireless connection. Had to connect directly with an ethernet cable to the modem. It did connect via the ethernet and downloaded the software updates. Finally got the wireless to work correctly after the connection via the ethernet-modem. It's a bit slow booting up, but does play my videos in 1080p with surround sound. Instruction pamphlet is very thin.
NeoTV: I don't know because I gave up after 3 minutes of watching the little swirly in the middle of the screen.Just as with Roku the "free" channels are pretty much useless. I found one that plays music videos and thought maybe it had some promise. Clicked on the Eagles Hotel California and video quality was well, hard to describe. You know those horrible quality home videos you sometimes see on Funniest Home Videos where it was obviously taken with the cheapest oldest cell phone camera?
Then yesterday, I had my young nephew over and wanted to put Netflix movies on for him. All I got on my TV was a black screen. Ended up using my son's Wii. I know it's not the connection hdmi cable because we disconnected it and hooked it up to our blue-ray player. This is one time I'm thankful my husband throws nothing away, back in box and back to store it is going. Over price piece of junk is all I would describe this as.
I purchased this player as my channel migrated from Roku to this one. I have read reviews which said this player is very slow and takes lot of time for buffering.here is my epxerience.While connected thru ethernet LAN cable the player was playing seamlessly & experience is good.Able to play you tube, netflix, huluplus ..etc - But does not have channels that have free movie collection (like Hulu or Wooster)response to remote is slow & some times frustrating.
Answer: yes, that's how I have it set up.
