To make sure you don’t get lost along the way, here’s 
a checklist of the 3 main connections you’ll need to 
make while setting up:

1

   Connect to your broadband modem 

(via Ethernet cable or WiFi)

2

  Connect to your TV antenna

  Connect to your TV

Connecting to the internet

There are 3 different ways you can connect your 
Yes TV box to the internet – that’s via 

Ethernet Cable

 

direct to your modem, using a pair of 

Power Line 

Adaptors

 or 

WiFi

. The best option for you depends 

on the location of your broadband modem or router 
in your home.

Top Tip: Using an Ethernet Cable or a pair 

of Power Line Adaptors will help you get the 

most out of your connection.

Option 1

USING ETHERNET CABLE 

Recommended if your modem’s within 3 metres 
of your TV.

1

   Grab the Ethernet Cable (B) and plug one end 

into the port labelled ‘INTERNET’ on the back 
of your Yes TV box (A).

2

   Plug the other end into a spare port on the 

back of your broadband modem or router (J).

  Step 1

Option 2

POWERLINE ADAPTORS (PLAs) 

If your modem’s in a different room or more than 
3 metres away from your TV.

What are Powerline Adaptors?

 They’re a pair of 

devices that transmit high-speed data between two 
power points in different parts of your home using 
existing electrical wiring - super handy hey!

1

   If you already have a pair of PLAs continue onto 

Step 2 (below). If you need a pair of PLAs just give 
us a call on 

1300 760 013

 and we can arrange to 

send a pair out to you for a small cost.  

2

   Grab one of the PLAs (C) and plug it into the 

power point nearest to your modem.

3

   Using the Ethernet Cable (B), plug one end into the 

port on that PLA and the other end into a free port 
on the back of your broadband modem or router (J).  

4

   Grab the other PLA (C) and plug it into the power 

point nearest to your TV (K) and Yes TV box (A).  

5

   Finally, plug one end of the second Ethernet 

Cable (B) into the PLA and the other end into 
the port labelled ‘INTERNET’ on the back of your 
Yes TV box (A).

Still need a hand? No problem.

TV and you have strong WiFi available.
