I've used both a Netgear WNDA3100 Wireless-N Dual band into the USB on my Panasonic TV and also a Homeplug ethernet connection, both from my Thomson Wi-Fi modem.
I'm assuming that your Blu Ray would connect in the same way. I also stream video from my PC to TV using either of the same connections through the Wi-Fi.
Best of luck.

The USB dongle is exactly the same as the one I've used with my panny TV, just plugged it into the TV and it found my wi-fi modem in another room.
The home plug is a different make from the one I've used but should also work provided you have a spare ethernet connection on your modem for the "sending" part of the home plug set up (there is some debate over home plugs causing interference but I've checked with my neighbours and they haven't had any problems).

None of them do for a Start you need ones that are N Compatibale plus the Frequency Range should be 5GZ and not 2GZ, as the 5GZ can be used through walls
and the like and has a better range between rooms

Here is one I suggest from Ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Solwise-Ho...item4ab1727c83 I am not sure if this has a Frequency Range of 5GZ
but it can transmit Wireless at 300MB, that other ones I looked at did not do
