HOW DO I DOWNLOAD FIRMWARE UPGRADE FOR MY SAMSUNG BD3660?

Dec 26, 2011 1:56AM PST

DOes anyone know which method is easiest to upgrade the firmware in my REGION A USA Sourced SAMsung BD2550? (same as 2500) (ex Best Buy 2009)
My recent region A Blus will not play on my player, they seize up 2 mins into movie and I have tried downloading a Samsungfirmware patch and inserting the CDR with the burnt patch on the CDR into the Samsung, but the player rejects the disc completely. I have also tried the ethnet cable connection but after consulting network option again I got nowhere. WHere am I going wrong? Any support/advice welcome. thanks Bruce

Thank you for your prompt reply. I tried your suggestion but the player refuses to download the patch either with a USB stick plugged into the back of the BD2550 player or the ethernet cable plugged into the blu ray and my lap top which is linked wireless broadband.Whengoing to system update it says check network set up which i do but only offers me 4 possibilities all irrevelant to my needs.
THe TV is a PIONEER KURO MONITOR puchased in the UK.
