NIghthawk R7000 as repeater/extender
Hello, We moved to a new house and we got a new router/modem from our internet/digital tv/phone provider. It is located in a small room where the electricity cabinet is. There are 4 utp ports...
- Yes
Hi,
Ive seen that the tv has an utp port but im not completely sure what would be the purpose of putting the r7000 in the tv
My installation is as followed. Utp out of the wall in the digital rv receiver. Then hdmi from receiver to the tv. If you plug the r7000 in the tv, how will it get internet?

You need to plug the R7000 into your main host router using the LAN to LAN port AP mode configuration. Then plug your TV into the R7000 LAN ports in back. NOT the Internet port.
