It was a pretty easy fix. You will have to run your LG with a static IP in the network menu.
From the D-Link router menu Advanced/Port Forwarding
check the box on the left
Name - Blu ray player
IP-address 192.168.0.5 is what I used
TCP-443
UDP 80,443
click save and let the router reboot and go to your player: Home/Settings/Network/Static IP
IP address 192.168.0.5
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Defalt Gateway 192.168.0.1
DNS Server 192.168.1.1

Mine is now working great. D-Link tech support was very helpful.

I have a LG BD-370 and have same problem. I tried above fix and it didn't work, but I have more fields like Application name and computer name.  any suggestion would be appreciated.

If your issue is constant buffering, try this setting:

Under Advanced --> QOS engine --> QOS engine setup
Uncheck Dynamic Fragmentation

       IT WORKS

Here is how I got it to work.

[Ridge Runner]

      IT Works

   Hardware Version  A4   for DIR-655

   Firmware was originally  1.21     up graded to 1.32NA

   Changed Blue ray to static IP of  192.168.0.25  subnet of 255.255.255.0
                               Gateway to 192.168.0.1    DNS server to 192.168.0.1

   on the router   advanced -> Port Forwarding   Name Blue Ray  TCP  80,443 
                              IP address   192.168.0.25      UDP  80,443   left application name and computer name alone     then saved settings

                        advanced ->  firewall settings     under DMZ host     CHECKED  ENABLE DMZ
                     and under DMZ IP ADDRESS added  192.168.0.25     left computer name alone
                  saved settings

                  rebooted router

            EVERYTHING WORKED.    only took 7 hours, but it WORKS.

If your in the DMZ, you should not even need the port forwarding stuff.  Anything that is in the DMZ should get all traffic sent through to it.  DMZ essentially puts the single machine outside of the routing network and sends through all traffic without the router checking it.

I hope you have really good software firewall on your DMZ pc....

You generally don't want to be using the DMZ for a PC....just my opinion....  Its a shame if thats the only way to get your issue resolved...  Seems like there should be a better way to get it done...
