Ethernet cable required for MS70 satellite?
I have an MR70 and one MS70 satellite (which is connected to TV via Ethernet cable). I need to add another satellite for better coverage, but my house is not wired for Ethernet. If I purchase another MS70, will it require an Ethernet cable to connect to the router? I appreciate any guidance, but please explain simply. I have very little knowledge of WiFi.
No. The MS70 satellite will connect to the router using WiFi (the default). Users have the option of connecting satellites to the router with Ethernet.
