Yes I was referrin to wi-fi connections. That is how my Onkyo interfaces with the net. For updates I agree with Gonk in that USB is the way to go. I have updated my OPO twice and it was a cinch both times. I bought my 886 from Outlaw and when it arrived it didn't have the latest firmware installed so I sent it back and they did the install for free including shipping costs. I don't think I will ever update the 886 because of the hassles involved.
