Ok, so, I cannot update firmware or use youtube/netflix, etc (BD550). I got the BD550 to be able to watch Netflix movies on TV, however, the Youtube and Picassa features are nice too. Anyway, simply put I cannot use Netflix.

First issue is I'm not getting the activation code I need to activate my player to stream movies. I called Netflix first and gave them the only number I get from: Network/Netflix/Netflix ESN/ LGE-BD56 (. Ahtoi, I see what you're saying, but, if anything, it's LG's loss. It is on their end that I cannot get the code to enter on the Netflix site to activate my streaming account. Netflix needs to know what equipment (there are several) I'm using to stream their movies. LG claims that I cannot get the code from them, from a person, an LG representative.

They say I can only get it from 'the machine' itself. They say they cannot give it to me. I'm only going to wait a few more days and then return the item and move on to something else.

1 disc plan, one device can be use only. 2 discs, 2 devices, and so on. I would definitely complain to Netflix in your case, if you can't access their system with more than 1 device. What I mean by devices is it could be BD player, Game console, a media player, computer, etc. So with a 4 discs plan, you could be streaming 4 different video to 4 different rooms at the same time (providing your broadband can handle that many). This has nothing to do with the number of discs you checked out already. Understood, ahtoi, however, I don't think the problem (at least for now) is at Netflix's end.

I can't get the access number they (Netflix) needs for me to access their movies/site. That number comes from LG (my player).

The problems don't stop there. I can't access ANY of the other features my player supposedly offers. I can't access the weather on the Weather Channel, or YouTube ('Congestion' problem). I couldn't even update my player. LG had to send me a disc to do so.

I updated it and then. Still doesn't work. I may have to return this player and get anther one. I'm accepting recommendations. Maybe you should try setting up your present account with Netflix again by deleting it and then opening it up again. California Drivers License Template Photoshop.

If you do this, then your blu-ray player will automatically generate a new activation code for the new account. The Netflix code is a five-character alpha-numeric activation code that you must type into your account to activate your device(blu-ray player). The code will appear on the Netflix screen of your TV once you have opened up your account at the Netflix website and turned on your blu-ray player for the connection to be made. If this doesn't work and you still can't connect to Netflix, then it's possible that you have either a problem with your network cable or the router port that you have the cable connected to. You said you ran a test to see if you had connection to the internet. Was that a test you ran on your PC? Or was it a test that you ran on your blu-ray player to see if it was connecting to the router?

You must try to re-create your account by closing the one you have now and then opening it up a new one as if you were a brand new member. Make sure you blu-ray player is turned off when you do it. When you open the fresh new account with Netflix, your blu-ray player should generate a activation number once you turn it on and connect it to Netflix. I had a similar problem myself when I tried using the original activation number from my blu-ray player and it didn't work. So I re-created my Netflix account and the player generated a new number for me and I tried that and it worked. Your player will not give you a number unless you create a new account with Netflix when you first connect your player. Vengeance Sound Pack. If you are already a Netflix member, your blu-ray player will assume that you already have a activation number.
