I have Wifi, will this help me access on demand movies with my Dtv subscription?

Yes, it works really well with streaming movies, music, and anything you can do on a PC.

If you have a newer model DIRECTV receiver, this device will allow you to connect it to your WiFi network. Once connected, you will be able to access many features of DIRECTV. This link takes you to the list of available features available with this device and successful connection to the internet via WIFi: http://www.directv.com/technology/connected_customer

Sorry I do not know since i do not use or plan on using this service I never checked it out, look in the specs if it doesn't I am sure you could buy a streaming box that will have it. The TV has dnla and it works great, however I have added a wd live box since the dnla does not play video files with DTS audio the wd does.

If your blue ray player has wifi capability, your tv will. If you plan on hooking any wifi device to almost ANY HDTV, you don't need to pay the extra for a smart tv. I have a Samsung using the usb Roku, and an LG using my PS3. Neither are smart TVs and I can get my netflix, amazon prime, hulu, etc. Technically the TV doesn't have wifi. You're just using the other devices wifi abilities.

Yes u will be able to access it with ur roku. Roku doesnt provide the seevice free it just allows you to stream it from the roku to ur tv. You will need all of your subscriptions.

This should work for the Dtv equipment. I don't know if it would work for other equipment on a network.

I can access it through my wireless Blu ray DVD player since it is hooked up to my computer as an external hardrive and can view home movies that I have on there. Not sure if that answers your question, but that is the only way I have used it with wireless.

I don't think so. The wifi on your dvd player is probably for connectivity. What you need is something that generates a wifi network that the receiver will detect and connect to.

Not really the majority of these device you need to configure it with servers... to get everything free... for example if you want I can set one up and sell it but will be around 300 with all latest movies from theater and a few live channels .. usually updates everyday so you wont miss the new movies in theater.. with no extra cost

Not sure since I did not use it for this reason. I imagine your BluRay player has to have the capability to support an internet connection (i.e. integrated software, interface, etc.)

I don't think so. I don't think the duo is configured to that. Besides, DTV does not have their own internet, they have a third party to do the internet service.

I do not think it will work unless your t.v. is a smart tv.. It acts like a router so if your TV is not Internet capable then I do not know how you could access the Internet browser. You should check into a device such as roku or Amazon fire tv since they allow for streaming on non smart tv's. You can check to see if there is a app you can download to access direct t.v.

Yes, provided you are a paid subscriber to "Netflix." The newer Sony Televisions have built-in applications that allow you to connect to a variety of on-line services including, but not limited to Sony's own Entertainment networks that includes video, music, and movies available, in addition to on-line services like Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, etc. Of course you will need to have a home wi-fi network and pair your TV with the network, but that is easy to do. These days most video equipment comes with built in apps. Personally, I can reach Netflix through my Blu-ray Player, my Sony T.V., or my Apple TV. They all have many on-line app portals and you'll never use all of them, at least, I don't even come close.

No. It hooks up either wirelessly or with a cable. Your choice. I'm hooked up wirelessly and love the ability to watch an entire movie with no interruption to load. It works great.

I don't believe this will allow you to access Netflix. This adapter only allows you to use dish TV apps such as their movies on demand as well as dvr. Hope this helps.

You can watch on demand content as of right now from some of the major channels. Ones such as lifetime and history, I think still require you to verify you subscribe to cable. We are not yet at a option to pay the network directly for access.

Yes. I have a Sony Blu-ray with wifi connected and am using the Blu-ray for connecting to Netflix.

No, unless you have certain Samsung or Sony TV with RVU technology. https://support.directv.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3992
