If you connect almost any device to a Wi-Fi access point, the device will save the password for future connections. If you change the password on the access point, you have to reconnect any Wi-Fi devices with the new password. So yes, you have saved the original password on your BD player.

Right now, if you change your Wi-Fi password, your BD player no longer connects to your network, which is why it can't see Serviio. It won't see anything else, either, including the Internet for firmware updates. I'm unfamiliar with the Pioneer menu, so I can't tell you the steps to remove your previous connection and save the new password.

Well even i am not aware of how to change the router password on the pioneer BLUE RAY SYSTEM(MODEL BDP-160)......CAUSE THERE IS NO MENU OPTION WHERE IT SAYS "CHANGE WIFI ROUTER PASSWORD"----->ENTER NEW ONE

On any bluray player I've had, there never is a place to simply change the password. Instead you need to go into settings and setup the network connection from scratch, whether it's wired or using wifi. You'll come to the screen asking for the password for the network then and enter the new password there.

Also, see if there's a setting under network to "forget" the current connection. Then start from scratch.
