Ethernet connection to Android box

I have my Orbi set up as this:  Virgin router is connected to my Orbi router and then I have 2 other Orbi satellites wirelessly set up around the house. What I would like to do is plug my Android box...

Hi,

 

Thanks for your reply.

 

I want to connect the box to the 1st satellite not the Orbi router. Can this be done? I am assuming it can, otherwise why would the satellites have Ethernet ports.

Regards

Yes, you can connect any ethernet supported device to the back of the satellite after it's fully configured and set up.
