A connection between your router and receiver: If items 1, 2, and 3 check out, now all
you need is a connection between your satellite receiver and home router. If your

Ethernet Cable is also known as a “Network cable”, “Cat5e cable” or “Cat6 cable”. If
you don’t already have one lying around, you can purchase a cable from your favourite
local electronics retailer or a variety of stores online.
