the HDMI port on the back of your SHIELD. Plug the other end of the cable into
an HDMI port on your TV or receiver.

Plug one end of the power cable into the back of your SHIELD and plug the other

and you will see the green light turn on. When you are not using it, it will

connection, you will have an option during setup to connect to a Wi-Fi network.

on your TV or monitor.
