Is it possible you use a wireless dongle in the starview 7 instead of using an earthnet cable from the router please
Thanks

Thanks very much for this dooby, which one would you recommend to get a bridge or dongle and how good is the reception on these do you know? Iv also read about homeplugs would that work aswell sorry to ask so many questions but I'm a total noob to this so any help is greatly appreciated or just say 3rd/4th one down on the list
Thanks again

You have to get the wifi bridge as this plugs into a usb port for power and ethernet for signal a normal usb wifi dongle will not work as starview does not have a driver to recognise and run it.

Reception is the same as any other wifi device if you have poor signal usually down to solid brick or stone walls then i would advise homeplugs option

Router or wireless router will be upstairs so I'm a little worried about poor signal to the box downstairs think a homeplug in this instance would be a better solution because I think I'm right in saying they have a better signal coverage would I be correct if this is so I think a homeplug is better?
Thanks again you have been so helpful and made a job I have never tackled before very easy hopefully Rolling Eyes
