I have a cable modem in the house that is connected to a wireless router. I have a tv in another room that has an ethernet port but I don&#8217;t want to run cable through the walls. I&#8217;d like to connect it wirelessly to my router. I am also going to buy a bluray player and don&#8217;t want to spend the extra $$ to purchase a wifi model. I would like to know what I need to buy to connect both to the internet. I also want to make sure both the tv and the player will have their own independent internet connection. In other words, this is going to be for my mother for christmas and I don&#8217;t want to have a complicated set up that would require turning on the bluray and then changing the input to enable the tv to get an internet connection. I&#8217;m trying to keep it simple. I&#8217;ve heard a few terms tossed out there, access point, bridge, hub. The device I&#8217;m envisioning in my mind is going to allow me to plug my tv and bluray player into it and have a connection with minimal configuring. I want it to be as &#8220;plug and play&#8221; as possible. Any help is greatly appreciated, this is starting to stress me out! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"iawp_total_views":239},"question-category":[47],"question_tags":[],"class_list":["post-148","question","type-question","status-publish","hentry","question-category-hardware"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question\/148","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/question"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=148"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=148"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"question-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question-category?post=148"},{"taxonomy":"question_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question_tags?post=148"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
