Problem:  VUDU actually has no network connectivity.

Solution:  Check Ethernet cable on both ends to make sure that a “link” light is seen on both sides.  On VUDU, these lights are on the Ethernet jack itself, left (green) for link and right (yellow) for activity.

Solution:  If a third party wireless or power-line Ethernet bridge is being used, please diagnose the problem with the third party that manufactured the bridge device.  If the problem appears to be related to the VUDU box itself, please try using wired Ethernet only to ensure that VUDU works.  If a problem is still seen via direct wired Ethernet, please contact VUDU Customer Care.
