Ethernet

Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to an available ETHERNET (LAN) port on the router, gateway, or Ethernet switch.

Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the ETHERNET port on the back of the satellite receiver, verifying the cable “clicks” into place. Check the lights on the receiver’s ETHERNET port.

The green light should be lit indicating the ETHERNET port is enabled and connected to an active port on the router/switch.

The yellow light flashes whenever data is being received over the connected Ethernet cable.

Refer to Setting up the Receiver on page 10 to complete the installation and verify the receiver’s Internet connection.
