Connecting the Satellite Receiver to an Available Ethernet 
Port
If the satellite receiver is located close to the router, gateway, or Ethernet switch, use the steps Connecting 
the Satellite Receiver Using Ethernet Cable
, below. If the satellite receiver is not located close to the 
router, gateway or Ethernet switch, use the steps Connecting the Satellite Receiver Using a HomePlug-to-
Ethernet Adapter
 on page 8.
Connecting the Satellite Receiver Using Ethernet Cable
Refer to Diagrams 3 and 4 and the instructions below to connect the satellite receiver to the router, 
gateway, or Ethernet switch using an Ethernet cable.
Note
: If using pre-existing Ethernet jacks in the home, the jacks must be properly wired for Ethernet. Some 
home phone systems use Cat-5 cable and jacks that are wired to support phone systems, not Ethernet. Refer 
to your local consumer electronics store or home network installer for more details. Using a HomePlug-to-
Ethernet adapter will likely result in an easier installation.
