Just a thread that i aint seen knockin around..

I heard the new lan enabled boxes cannot be used 2 on the same network unless using homeplugs or something? (could someone confirm?)

Now, if i was to purchase a Starview 7/Kryptview a780/Other Lan Box, will the following work:


Modem -> Router
Router -> Ethernet Switch
Router -> PC
Ethernet Switch -> XBOX360
Ethernet Switch -> PS3
Ethernet Switch -> Revo r3610
Ethernet Switch -> *Lan Enabled box*

I know thats only one box in the setup.. but does it work from an ethernet switch and if so, is it possible to connect 2 via an ethernet switch?

you should have at least 4 empty ports on your router and you can always buy a hub 8/16/24 port and use that i suggest you hard wire your boxes etc for the best results

hi mate thanks for the reply, i forgot to mention that everything above is hard wired with ethernet wires (wireless is the laptop which i forgot to add)

the router itself has 2 ports available and the ethernet switch has 4 ports available (8 port switch)

would the box work through the switch?

all of the above works simultaniously.. so i dont see why the box won't.. but ide just like to confirm this for other users if they have a similer setup

i just thought the only thing that would stop it from working is if there was another box in the setup (which if i read correctly you can have 2 on the same line without homeplugs??)
