Best Way to Connect New Sony Blu-Ray

I am a novice here (so don't laugh.)  I just got a new Sony Blu-Ray and need to know the best way to connect it to the TV/Uverse box in the bedroom (what to plug where.)  There are no other components connected there.  The Blu-Ray has WiiFii capability and the router is in another part of the house.

Fast Forward and Rewind Bug

Didn't see this posted before but I noticed that the jumpback feature seems to be flipped while using MRV. In other words fast forward and when you come out of it you jump forward not back.Similarly when you rewind you jumpback instead of jumping forward.Seems like a basic flip of standard behavior.

My DirecTV never worked properly, so I cancelled shortly after I obtained it.  I spoke with a very kind customer service representative Dustin from West Virginia who told me that he would waive the early termination fee, as I wanted to switch to AT&T cable to go along with the pre-existing AT&T inte
