Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It shouldn't require an internet connection to play DVD/Blue ray movies on disk. It will require the internet to use the streaming apps like Netflix available on the player.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, just use HDMI cable and it functions. Cannot stream or get updates without good internet service.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No it doesn't. It only needs internet for streaming online services like NetFlix and YouTube, and for doing firmware updates the easiest way. You can still do firmware updates (if desired) by downloading onto a flashdrive and connecting that to the USB port. This player does work well for playing content from a home media server over your own WiFi, and of course for playing DVD and BluRay disks.
