Is it possible technically possible that a firmware update could eliminate the need to unplug machine,stop the freezing,& fix it for good?

Its set to automatically update, and I checked its fully updated. It's fast plays good, only freezes too often. The Wi Fi is a piece of junk. My Roku , and Sony Blu Ray DVD work great.

Go to your set up menu and make sure that your firmware is up to date. It is possible that the firmware is not set for automatic updates. Would depend on your initial set up. Firmware updates will usually address issues that players have with certain software and titles and should address most issues.

Updates only make it freeze more often! It constantly freezes having to unplug from the wall.

They just came out with 1.0.0.3 Build 9 firmware... try it and see if there's any improvement

I'm pretty sure you can, however, I have noticed with mine that it freezes up a lot, I don't really use it that much anymore for that reason.

Thanks for the info. Guess i have to wait for the newer firmware version. Since I purchase on Amazon, i assume i would have to work it through Samsung if i bricked it. P.S. Funny enough, when I first received the unit, i tried to do a firware upgrade and it said that none were available. It should have been, so maybe i was lucky it didn't work.

Update? Sorry, the original firmware is about the only one you are ever going to see. Don't expect much from this manufacturer.

I'm sorry, but I do not know if there is a fix for this issue, or not. Intuitively, I would say that there is not. There are a number of things about the software that drives this unit that are, let's just say, "quirky".

does anyone know if this can be fixed by a future firmware update, or maybe a software?

I've had a mixture of strange issues with mine which is the N56VM-AB71 ... Random freezing etc. but I installed an SSD and I'm hoping that's the issue. I am fairly sure I can't get it fixed under warranty having removed the hard drive.

I just bought a new unit and not having the problem mentioned. Have you tried checking if there is a firmware update available and apply it?

You can upgrade the -firmware- version according to tplinks website. The user guide says "the firmware version much match the hardware version" or something. I don't really know what this means, they don't have good translations sometimes (tp-link).

Very strange indeed. I update firmware directly via internet without problems. Plus, Toshiba sends me a firmware update disk within a couple of weeks of every firmware release. Did you register your product? I think that is how Toshiba knows to send me the CD! I hate to suggest that perhaps you tried to burn the zip file rather than the extracted ISO file by mistake. I just tried to burn the ISO image and it, too, worked like a charm.

You can update the firmware over the internet (ethernet or wi-fi), no need for a thumb drive or CD.

I did end up getting this system for christmas and so far it works fine. I haven't been prompted to upgrade the firmware via the network, and based on other's experiences I'm a bit hesitant to update it unless it specifically fixes an issue, which I haven't found any yet.

It looks like LG did correct the problem with the firmware upgrade. I did the firmware upgrade thru my wireless network just couple days ago and it came thru successfully. I was thinking if it failed, I'd do what Matt suggested. You might want to give it a try again with the upgrade. I'm going to rent a blue-ray movie, hopefully it won't freeze.

Firmware like this is usually tested well enough to prevent what you are seeing. Go back to the previous version though. I doubt that you could have actually broken the router with the firmware update.

I remember reading somewhere that you need to get a firmware update after you take it out of the box and that will fix all the glitches.......I would google it.

I'm not sure I understand your question but download the latest firmware from asus
