Connecting using a Home Plug
It is possible to use Home Plug or other similar networking devices to connect
the HD recorder to the Internet. This can be particularly useful when the
recorder is in a different room to the broadband router. The pair of home plugs
simply acts as an Ethernet cable.
Preparation:
You will need a
working broadband
connection with a
router. You will also
need a pair of Home
Plug devices
Step 1:
Connect one end of an
Ethernet cable to a
spare Ethernet socket
on the broadband
router. Connect the
other end to the Home
Plug device and plug it
in to a mains socket.
Step 2:
Connect the other end
of the Ethernet cable
to second Home Plug
and plug it into the
mains socket.
Connect the other end
of the Ethernet cable
into the LAN socket on
the rear of the
recorder.
