best to use the f connector ones as you get a better connection.

what most houses have for basic tv,a socket for getting a coaxial signal.you know what a cat5 internet cable is hopefully:beg:as used on pcs,lappy and other lan devices;)

ok just checking download photo to ****remember where as i forget lol,on the forum reply scroll down and see manage attachments,add files from the select files browse section of lappy to find the photo you downloaded click in to save and upload to site,try that.

when you say cable coming out is it a coaxial cable or lan/internet cable,think you might need a router,others can advise on that.

i have a coaxial cable coming from just inside house and its goin straight to wireless router,
do i need to disconnect it from wireless router and put into rear of sv7 box ?
or should i just run ethernet cable from wireless router to sv7 box ?

 

[cactikid]

i would say coaxial cable to a splitter with f connectors 1 side into router other 1 into coaxial input of box,and you will also need a lan.cat5 cable to connect to router.
always need 2 cables as the coaxial cable is used for scanning in the channels and the lan for connection to their place to decrypt.
