Thank you for the links, Longbow. I've read so many reviews about various solutions, but to be fair, they confused me and left me even more undecided. Most reviews recommend a wired connection between the Smart box and router, but this is not possible in my house as the router is in a different room. I currently use a Vonets Wi-fi Bridge which plugs into the TV's ethernet port and is powered by it's only USB port. This allows me to access BBC iPlayer and the other available apps which Sony allows, and it works very well. Despite the wireless connection, I don't have a problem with buffering at the moment because I have BT Infinity 2 broadband which is quite fast.
However, I would like to be able to access YouTube, ITV player and C4 player in addition to BBC iPlayer, but I'm not really interested in the many other available Smart box features (eg. Netflix). My other great wish is to be able to pause live TV, but as far as I'm aware, this is only possible with subscription based boxes such as Sky, so I'll have to do without that facility.
