Ethernet connection
Do I need to change a setting for my Telus box to accommodate Ethernet or just hook up the cable

Here is the manual for that device as well as information on the various indicators. If the Link indicator is green you are using wired. If not then it's either not connected or using wireless:

2 years agoWhich Telus box? Are you switching from wi-fi to ethernet or is this a new install?

Thanks Fuzz It's an existing service. The box is for a second tv long way from my router. I've run cat 6 under the house to that far away location. Just wondering if any settings need to be amended as it's not improving my service which freezes frequently requiring a reboot.

Depending on the box it should have an indicator showing it's connected wirelessly or wired. Possibly it's still using wifi?
- Janzep2 years agoFriendly NeighbourThanks for that info. I’ve plugged in the cat 6 to the Optik box and I have a flashing amber light and a green solid light at the connection. Does this mean I’ve successfully gone wired with no need to change any settings?
