Hello

1. Ensure that there is no disk in the tray.

2. Switch the player off and then back on. This is necessary to clean-boot the firmware.

3. Wait until the main menu page appears and the player stops doing anything.

4. Press the eject button to open the tray. (The button is between the "Power" and "TV Power" buttons at the top of the controller.)

5. Press the eject button to close the tray.

6. Wait while the player searches for a disk.

7. As soon as the "No Disk" message appears at the top left corner do the following.

8. Press the REPEAT button - just above the TV channel selector at the bottom right of the controller.

9. Enter your former region code (Where you bought the player) from the list given below on the number pad.

10. The region code should appear at the top left corner of the screen.

11. Enter a "9" to make the player region free. (Enter a region code if you want to lock the player to another region for some obscure or perverse reason.)

12. Power down and power up again.

13. Play a foreign DVD to verify the change.

you must start entering the code just after the "No Disk" message is shown and before the message disappears. If you miss a number it won't work

Secondly, the REPEAT key is part of the code. All six keys must be entered smoothly as "REPEAT Region code". The entry gets timed out so you can't stop in the middle and restart. Don't bash away like crazy, just do it smoothly and briskly.

If you don't see the "Region number" the first time, don't worry. Just repeat the process. It may take about a dozen tries before you get it to work.

The following are the various region codes.

Region 1 (US, Canada) - 29334

Region 2 (Europe, Middle East, Japan) - 38767

Region 3 (South East Asia, Hong Kong) - 56732

Region 4 (South America, Oceania) - 76884

Region 5 (Russia, India) - 53814

Region 6 (China) - 24462

Hi Chris. I think the USB method is the only way to upgrade your BR-player. Below, you can find the links to get the files that you need to do it, from a Samsung's official page. Good luck!!

Hello,

We are here to TRY to help you.

The thing we got to discuss is your router or access point. You need to update us with the make and model router.

Now if the thing is connected to the internet and you need a netflix code you need to login to your account via netflix.com then add a device after witch a code will be distributed.

So this could be a two part issue but from what your saying it looks to me if you need a WEP key and that would be found in your router or access point via 192.168.1.1. or 192.168.1.254. It would be hard for me to tell without the make and model of the router to tell you how to get this running.


Please update us with this information.

Thanks,

Edwy aka rulds2008 Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/edwy_1a56970cf1ea4620

It sounds like you have 2 disks stuck in there. TV repair shop, or try shaking the dvd player lightly while dvd is trying to open. You may need to help open the door, but too much effort could cause harm.

It sounds like you need to update the firmware on the player.

This link has the download you need and instructions on how to do the task.

It is here:

I hope I have been of help but please do not hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.Your vote will be appreciated

The best way to accomplish this is to connect an ethernet cable directly from your modem to the bluray player (TV needs to stay connected to the player so you can see the menu). Find the Update option in the menu and that's that.

If you can't do that, use a USB flash drive to transfer the Update manually.

This is the website:

It is important to follow the directions exactly as stated by the manufacturer to avoid frustration.

Hope I helped!

Hi,
Normally you need to update firmware of bluray player to get playback of new movies/ titles and firmware can be updated by connecting bluray to DSL internet service.
Please check user manual of bluray player about update of firmware.
Thanks.
