You have one STB

You have one STB and one television. You can assign one port for your IPTV connection and connect your STB to it.This effectively changes the IP address of the LAN port to the IP address of the WAN port. In the following figure, you assign port LAN 4 as the IPTV STB port. Video traffic (that you subscribed to) goes directly to the STB without being routed to the LAN.

The IP addresses of LAN 3 and LAN 4 changes to the same IP address as the WAN port. Connect the STBs to the ports. Video traffic (that you subscribed to) goes directly to the STB without being routed to the LAN.
