Connection Requirements

SPLITTER
LINKSYS CABLE MODEM
RJ – 45 NIC Cable
Ethernet Cable
Router(WIRELESS OR WIRED if you intend to use more than one pc)
DECODER(mytv, hitv, dstv, daarsat etc)
Coaxial to RJ-45 converter or adapter
COAXIAL CABLES

The steps to Connection

Step 1

Coaxial Cable cord

Splitter Port

Connect the coaxial cable from your dish to your satellite decoder splitter (i.e. the “in” part) and then connect one cable from the first “out” port to your decoder and the one from the second port to your Linksys modem; the cable can be purchased from any shop where they sell cable

Decoder while one of the other coaxial cable cords is connected to your television to watch satellite stations.

Step 2

Coaxial Cable cord

LINKSYS ROUTER

Connect the second Coaxial cable cord from the splitter to WAN port of your router (Linksys Router)

Step 3

Coaxial Cable cord

If your cable modem does not have an inbuilt router facility, you will need to connect your cable Modem to the CATV network of your router using the same coaxial cable connection as your TV, but might need to convert it

Step 4

Ethernet Cable

LINKSYS ROUTER

Connect the Ethernet Cable from the router to your computer system, which can stand as a client if you are using only one computer or server if you are networking more than one system, make sure that your computer has an inbuilt Ethernet adapter on the Motherboard or a separate Ethernet card, you can also install an Ethernet Card into an available internal expansion slot or you can alternatively use a USB – Based Ethernet Adapter instead. In our connection we use a USB –based Ethernet adapter on HITV Decoder

Step 5

LINKSYS ROUTER

RJ -45 Cable

At the back of the Linksys Router there are several ports, port 1 – 4 Stand as the LAN(Local Area Network) Port which can be used to connect 1 -4 CPU to the router with an RJ -45NIC Cable, in most cases the cables comes with the router when you purchase it. Connect 1 -4 CPU to the LAN Port of the router with your RJ -45 Cables, please don’t mistake it with the Ethernet cable, as is only to be used to connect the computer which is the server to the Router for network routing and also note that each of the CPU that connect to the Router LAN Port with the help of RJ-45 must have an inbuilt Network card install in them, while the server should have an Ethernet card adapter install on the board as mentioned earlier.

Step 6

The fifth port of the Linksys Router which stand as the WAN Port (Wireless Access Network) Connect the second coaxial cable that comes from the splitter to the WAN Port of the Router, but note that you need a converter which is an adapter that convert the coaxial cable to RJ -45 cable since the Router WAN port does not have a direct port for a coaxial cable

Step 7

The sixth port of the Linksys Router which is called the Uplink Port, the port can be connected to a Hub or a Switch to enable additional users or computers within the network range to share with the internet of your decoder via wireless access
