I'd like some advice please, as don't want to go out and buy something which I don't need or is the wrong piece of equipment.

I have a Panasonic blue ray player dmp-bd60. It has an ethernet port. My panasonic TV is not internet ready but you can attach a PC or lap top to it. t

Upstairs I have my PC and new 50mb virgin broadband duel hub. I've not used this for any wireless connections yet. I've been round the internet read about Wireless N Ethernet Bridges and routers but I'm still not sure what I need to simply connect the blu ray to the internet so I can enjoy the additional features offered. I may at sometime have a lap top but that's a long way off.

Any advice would be appreciated.
