A few years back, I had bought an earlier version of this Player, the Sony UBP-X700 model. Wireless connection to the internet was one of the possibilities for that Player as the software updates were automatic and I did not need to check myself. I had a look at the manual for the newer Sony UBP-X700K model today, but did not find anything about a wireless connection in it; only a connection via cable is mentioned. By looking at the specifications of the new model in the Galaxus webpage, I see a clear "Wi-Fi" under Media player properties - Functions. This points in the direction of a wireless connection. Therefore, there is a contradiction between what I see in the manual of the new model and the information of the webpage. I wonder whether someone who bought the new model could provide some... enlightenment. Many thanks in any case.

Hello, I've just bought it and I couldn't connect it to Wi-Fi, nothing is specified in the instructions. So I had to fit a cable so that it could have internet. I hope this helps.

Answer

Hi,

Thank you for your question.

We can confirm that the UBP-X700/K doesn't have a built-in Wi-Fi. Therefore, the player supports wired connection only.

If you're looking for a Sony player that supports wireless connection, you may consider the BDP-S3700.

Answer

Hello, I haven't asked myself that question. All my connections are wired.
I've just checked the configuration menu and there's no wifi connection trace.
