The wireless network interface on my Roku player (for streaming Netflix) died at some point during the last couple of months. Since my warranty only expired a couple of weeks ago and this issue is a known problem, they are likely to replace it, but I'd have to send my Roku player in for an exchange. They might also make me buy the extended warranty ($30?) to get the replacement box.
The Ethernet interface still works, so I can use the broken one, just not wirelessly. If I really needed it to be wireless in the future, I could always buy a cheap wireless bridge, which look like apparently retail for around $40 currently. This would also save me from having to deal with Roku's customer service, which has a really really bad reputation.
I'm thinking I'm just gonna let it slide.
