Home Satellite TV Receivers

What you need to connect

What you need to connect

• High speed Internet access: You must have a broadband connection to use Remote PVR. A minimum speed of 256 Kbps is recommended.
• A router or home networking modem with an available Ethernet port
• Ethernet cable

If your PVR isn’t close to an Ethernet port, you can use an Internet Connect Kit to connect to the Internet. You can purchase an Internet Connect Kit online. Bell’s Internet Connect Kit is designed and tested for use with Bell Satellite TV receivers.

You can buy other HomePlug adapters at consumer electronics retailers. However, Bell Satellite TV does not support these devices, and you may have to configure them to work with your Bell Satellite TV receiver. These devices are usually sold in pairs, but you need only one to connect your receiver to the Internet. We recommend that you use a Internet Connect Kit with Remote PVR.

Note: The grey-coloured HD PVR model 9200 is not compatible with the Remote PVR feature. You cannot connect it to the Internet through an Ethernet or an Internet Connect Kit.

Older Home Connect Kits (black models) are also compatible with Remote PVR.

Connect with an Ethernet cable

1. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable directly to the port on the back of the receiver.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to one of the following:
   • An Ethernet wall port near the receiver
   • An available port in your router or Home Networking modem
3. A steady green light and blinking yellow light on the back of the receiver indicate that you have a connection.

Note: The grey-coloured HD PVR model 9200 is not compatible with the Remote PVR feature. You cannot connect it to the Internet through an Ethernet or a HomePlug connection.
