Connecting the TV-Hub to an onboard local area
network (LAN) is required if any of the following
conditions apply:
• One or more IP AutoSwitches are installed to
enable automatic satellite switching
(Linear/
DISH Network/Bell TV only)
• Customer wants to access the TV-Hub’s web
interface using any device connected to the
onboard network (see Figure 44)
NOTE:
Connecting the TV-Hub to the onboard
network using its Wi-Fi rather than an Ethernet cable
is not recommended because you lose the ability to
connect directly to the TV-Hub’s built-in Wi-Fi. You
will always need to connect via the network.
NOTE:
The Reset button on the rear panel of the
TV-Hub (see Figure 45) reverts all network settings
back to their original factory settings.
Wired LAN Connection
a.
Connect the “Ethernet” port on the TV-Hub
to the onboard network (LAN) using the
supplied Ethernet cable.
b.
By default, the TV-Hub’s Ethernet port is
configured as a DHCP client, and the
network’s router automatically assigns it an
IP address. However, in this
Dynamic
mode,
the TV-Hub could get assigned a different IP
address whenever it is turned on.
KVH recommends that you set the TV-Hub
to
Static
mode and enter a static IP address at
the web interface (see Figure 46) (go to
Settings > Network Settings). Be sure to
choose a static IP address that is outside the
router’s DHCP range (refer to the router’s
user manual for details on finding its range.)

For systems with IP AutoSwitch(es), make
sure they are on the same local LAN segment
as the TV-Hub (see Appendix A on
).
For DIRECTV systems set up for automatic
satellite switching, make sure the receiver(s)
have IP addresses in the same subnet as the
TV-Hub (see Appendix B on
).
IMPORTANT!
