Wired Connection
A wired connection is a direct connection between your DSL/cable router and your
DIRECTV Plus DVR via an Ethernet cable. Note that your equipment may look different.
®
Along with the requirements listed on the previous page, you will need:
Cat5 Wiring in your home.
This means that you have Broadband ready Ethernet jacks that
you can plug into in different areas of your home. Alternatively
you can use an Ethernet cable to connect your DIRECTV Plus
DVR directly to your DSL/Cable router.
Step 1:
If you can access your router, make sure that it is providing Broadband to the Ethernet jack
that you are connecting your DVR to.
Step 2:
Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port located on the back of your DVR.
Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to your Ethernet jack in the wall or directly in
to the free port of your modem.
