Router
An Ethernet cable is used to connect the LAN socket on the rear of the HD
recorder to an unused Ethernet (LAN) port on a home broadband router.
Ethernet cables can be purchased from most PC retailers. This is the cheapest
and simplest method of connection.
Preparation:
You will need a working
broadband connection
with a router.
Step 1:
Connect one end of the
Ethernet cable to a
spare Ethernet socket
on the broadband router.
These are often marked
“LAN” on the router.
Step 2:
Connect the other end of
the Ethernet cable to the
LAN socket on the rear
of the HD recorder.
Basic Connection
Once connected, there are no settings to change on the recorder. If there are
any problems, refer to the troubleshooting guide as it may be necessary to make
some changes to the broadband router settings.
