Wifi not working for phone or DVD player...?

CeCe

I have a Netgear DGN100 modem/router. Last week I was trying to figure out why the internet was not working on my laptop but the Netflix through my DVD player was still working. I pushed the "restore to factory settings" on the back which made a huge problem for me. I finally figured out on my own how to fix the internet on my laptop (since Netgear's tech support was wanting $30 for the first 30minutes to fix it for me). However, now I am not able to get my DVD or iphone to connect to the wifi. I've tried several different passwords, password reset and nothing is working. If someone could please help me figure this out, I would very much appreciate it! Thanks so much!
I pushed the "restore to factory settings" button on the back of the modem/router.

Answer
what did you push back to factory settings: DVD player or Router.

Just leave it open and have your devices connect to it via their Mac Address, through the routers filter.

Tech Help!!! internet capability on DVD player. but I need WiFI?

RunCruzRun

Here is the situation
I have a Blu-Ray DVD player that comes with internet capability (Sony Model No. BDP-S185)
Sadly it does not have WiFi capability, it only supports the classic Ethernet cable.
I have a router that supports both Ethernet and Wireless capabilities. (Netgear Model No. WGT624v4)

My problem is that I cannot run an ethernet cable, I am not willing to purchase a new Blu-Ray Player that supports WiFi, And I cannot Install a Router closer to my location where I may use a much shorter Ethernet Cable.

Is there some sort of wireless adapter that i can plug in to the Ethernet port just might do the trick?
Budget is about $40 USD, I will make slight negotiations in price up to $50 maybe but my parameters will remain the same.
I understand a unit like this may require power, so plugging in a USB or plugging into a wall socket is completely acceptable. The DVD player I own has a USB port but does not support wireless adapters in that specific port (The USB Port)

Answer
Sony does make a USB Wireless LAN Adaptor for sony blu-ray player.But it costs more than a new player would cost.The problem you are going to have is you won't be able to install the software for a regular wireless adapter.Samsung makes then for their dvd players around $30.You would think Sony would to.Check Sony web site you might find one there that will work with your model blu ray.
