The most popular choice will be the LinkSys WGA600N "wireless game adapter" (aka Ethernet bridge).

Another option, Linksys Powerline Network Kit Model PLTK300, that is what I purchased to stream Netflix, works great.

I originally used the LinkSys WGA600N "wireless game adapter" to hook my LG Blu-Ray player to my wireless network. But, when I needed a second ethernet connection behind my TV, I switched to using a set of HomePlug adapters. The one I bought to go behind the TV has four LAN ports.

My router supports 802.11N, so I assume the wireless setup was using the faster connection speed. It worked fine for Netflix streaming, though occassionally I wouldn't get "HD" quality on some videos.

The HomePlug setup, however, seems to be about twice as fast. The red bar is displayed for about half the time while the video buffers and I always see "HD" quality displayed for HD videos.

I didn't do any formal testing of either setup so your mileage may vary.

SlingLink Turbo (a HomePlug Adapter) is an excellent choice as well.

Another good choice, especially if you think you'll need more than one port in the future is dLink's DAP-1522 Wireless Bridge/Access Point. It's a 4-port wireless access point and seems to play nice with it's own brand or other brand routers, etc, in 802.11g or 802.11 draft N. I'm using it to get 4 pieces of A/V equipment on my 5 GHz draft N network and, so far, its fast and trouble-free. I wasn't sure just how the dLink would work with my Apple draft N network but so far I'm impressed. The DAP-1522 is a tad more expensive than the single port models and might even be a little harder to find. If interested you might check Amazon for price and availability.
