A:AnswerHi Jeff, The unit is not designed to be used as a hotspot. It won't share Internet connection to another device. We currently don't have Blu-ray/DVD players that can be used as a hotspot. ~Ralph
A:AnswerHi Dlgh, It will depend on the connections available on the soundbar. The Blu-ray player supports HDMI and coaxial connections. You may find this link helpful:

A:AnswerI don't believe these come as multi-region (or region-free) out of the box. The are set for the region you bought it in. If you want region-free, you have to buy it from a third party shop that provides that service.
A:AnswerHi Frank, No, external speakers can't be directly connected to the unit. You may connect it to a soundbar or A/V receiver as an alternative. ~Ralph
