Connect your broadband
If your Hub is close enough to your YouView box, use the
Ethernet cable to connect your YouView box's Ethernet
socket to one of your Hub's gigabit (Gig) Ethernet ports.
If your Hub is too far from your YouView box and you've
ordered broadband extenders (Powerline adapters), see the
user guide that came with them to set them up.
To find out more about broadband extenders, go to
bt.com/help/tvpowerlines
Make sure that your broadband's working properly
If it isn't, see your Hub manual for help. Don't worry if your Hub
looks different from the one above.
Your YouView box can get quite warm.
Please don't:
put it near heat
cover it
enclose it.
And remember to remove its protective film.
