XR 1000 internet setup to wifi

Is it possible to hook up XR1000 to internet without using ethernet cable. I used cable to setup but would prefer to use wifi for better location and lack of wired connection. How do I do it? Thanks....

It does need to be connected via ethernet cable. You could use a powerline adapter from the ISP router and then connect the XR1000 into that but it has to get a wired connection in some way.
