Dish Network Home Network Installation Instructions Manual page 10

One HomePlug-to-Ethernet adapter must be obtained for use at the location of the router,
gateway, or Ethernet switch. One adapter supports up to 15 receivers. The ViP-series of DISH
Network receivers include HomePlug 1.0 support. HomePlug Turbo adapters can also be used.
: These adapters may also be referred to as "HomePlug-to-
Note
Ethernet Bridge", "Powerline Ethernet Adapter", or "Powerline
Network Adapter". To identify adapters that are compatible
with HomePlug 1.0 or Turbo, look for either of the HomePlug
logos, and a speed rating of 14 Mbps or 85 Mbps. Adapters
using HomePlug AV, HomePlug 2.0, or a speed rating of 200
Mbps are not compatible with DISH Network receivers.
Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to an available
or Ethernet switch.
Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the
adapter.
Plug the HomePlug-to-Ethernet adapter into an electrical outlet located near the router.
Note : The HomePlug-to-Ethernet adapter and the DISH Network satellite receiver's power cord
should both be plugged directly into an electrical wall outlet. If a surge protector is used, it must
be approved for use with HomePlug devices, and the adapter or satellite receiver must be plugged
into the HomePlug outlet of the surge protector. Do not plug the adapter or satellite receiver into
an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch or into GFI electrical outlets.
HomePlug-to-Ethernet adapters typically have lights to indicate they are functioning. Refer to the
adapter's installation instructions for details, or see Troubleshooting on page 12.
Refer to Setting up the Receiver, below, to complete the installation and verify the receiver's
Internet connection.
