Okay, why does my computer connect to my router but not my TV or Bluray player?

My computer is connected to the net but when I try to connect to Netflix or Pandora through my tv or bluray player it says

"LAN feature is invalid.
Please check your network settings or/and network connection"

Any and all help will be appreciated. Thanks.

I've got the 750 setup as an access point. Give me a second to remote in and check the settings.

All three are wireless. I just came home today and two of the three won't connect.

Looks like it'll have to wait for a few hours. My kids must be playing on the pc because they keep booting me off. I'll try to get you an answer by this evening if no else gets to you first.

Unplug and wait 15 seconds to reset your router. Just a thought. It has worked for me in the past.

I'll give it a try. Does it matter which one I plug in and start up first?

How far away is the router from those devices?

The router is upstairs and the devices are downstairs. They've worked for the last few years and nothing is new.

likely doesn't matter. Personally, I would start with the router.

Go in and redo the network settings on TV and bluray player?

As in disconnect from the network then try to reconnect
