(More customer reviews)I bought the BD-HP80U Blu -ray to sync up with my Sharp 52" Quattron 3d LED TV. I gave this unit 4 star in stability because of the initial set up. I highly recommend breaking out the book to set this unit up. My remote appeared not to work because I had no activity when pressing the buttons toward the unit. The IR remote sensor setting on the unit was set to wall. The default IR set up is suppose to be on the side of the player, but after checking the manual mine came out of the box set to the top IR sensor. There is a switch on the bottom of the unit and depending how you mount it will determine which sensor to use. On the wall the top and on the shelf the side. Then my Blu-ray kept black screening before the initial set up screen. After looking in the trouble shooting section of the manual it guided me to resetting and rebooting the unit to factory specifications. This fixed the black screen problem and I was then able to complete the setup by using the Blu-ray remote and the TV. After this I was able to configure the wireless setting to my home network. Sharp has a walk through menu in how to set up your blu-ray player to you home network. You will need to know your router's IP address, admin user ID, password, and what kind of security you have on your home network. Follow the menu screens and enter the information in the box and you shouldn't have any trouble setting this Blu-ray up to your home network. The first things I after I got my blu-ray connected to my home network was down load and install the latest firmware. I had no problems and udating the firmware will take about 3 to 5 minutes. I was able to set up a Netflix account with one month free access with Sharps website. The first movie I downloaded kept freezing up. Netflix gave me a survey and I received one day extension. I won't take a star away for this because of all the other variables that are involved streaming movies: internet speed, location of Blu-ray player, speakers, and amp, to name a few. Since the 1st day I have not had any problems down loading and streaming movies. This unit replaced my Panasonic Blu-ray player and Panasonics are some of the fastest loading Blu-ray players on the market. This Sharp Blu-ray is a little slower in loading than the Panasonic but not enough for me change my mind and not keep this Blu-ray player. It is much faster loading Blu-ray discs than Sony or Samsung Blu-ray players. I have played regular DVDs and this upgrades them to almost Blu-ray quality and the Blu-ray movies are great. I haven't bought my 3d glasses or a movie yet but I know the quality will be awesome. All in all I am happy with the purchase from Amazon.com. My order was processed and shipped and delivered within Amazon's guidelines. I would recommend this Blu-ray player especially if you have a Sharp LC52LE835U Quattron 52" or a 60" 3d LED TV.
