if your box is near your router then an ethernet cable will do if not you can use homeplugs one plugs into mains and humax other at router and mains internet connection then goes through your house wireing but will only work if both plugs are on the same ring max brand seem to be cheapest around ?35 a pair

thanks for your reply, short of getting an engineer to install my wiring, i would do it myself if i new how to mould the connections to both ends of the wiring. Do you know what kind of tool i need for this job? These guys aren't keen on doin this for me as i bury all wiring in the walls, i have to concidering the number of speakers i have all over the place.Ethernet cable will do the job routre is buried in corner out of sight as well. thank again
