Total Garbage

LG WiFi Built-in Blu-ray Player BP300
LG WiFi Built-in Blu-ray Player BP300

Pros: None.

Cons: Have to connect to network successfully to be able to see MAC address so you basically have to disable your MAC filter security on your wireless network to be able to get the MAC address of this device to enter into the allowed MAC addresses and re-enable security. After going through that ridiculous setup procedure, the device worked for one evening of streaming (a few hours), and then failed to find the router on the next night or thereafter. Other devices on the network worked with no problem including two other streaming devices (Sony) , a laptop, and a smartphone. This device has only Netflix and Vudu, and whatever you put in the slot (DVD) or USB port. It only has one HDMI connection. I bought this to use as a basic CD player when my other one crapped out, connected to an old receiver , but no HDMI on the old receiver so I tried using as an alternate to another streaming player which did have audio out jacks. Paying 27.5% of its cost just to return the thing, that's how much it sucks. Should have read newegg.com's policy that they don't pay for return shipping on defective devices.

Junk

D-Link GO-SW-8GE 8-Port Gigabit Unmanaged Metal Desktop Switch

Pros: cheap

Cons: Used 1 month, unplugged 2 months, now doesn't work. Total junk. Always have had problems with D-Link stuff, returned stuff years ago, quit buying their stuff, thought maybe they had improved over the last decade or so, so tried again due to price. Waste of $20 I got this for on sale.
