How do I hook this up to a satellite dish (DirectTV) or my computer (US Cellular internet) without running wires all over my house?

You don't! This player is meant to hook to an ethernet wire run out of a router. "Wires all over the house" If you want a WIFI get a blu ray player with built in wireless. By the time you get the one wifi adapter that will work with this player you will find it would have been cheaper to get a wireless blu ray. Of course you also need a broadband internet connection to stream video. You can stream video over a cellular connection but expect problems.

Just the antenna. You would need to but coaxial cable(you can use the same one cable company install in your house and signal booster(optional)

I can't say for sure. Keep in mind that most Satellite TV is wired in house via coax.

You need and HD source. OTA antenna if you can pick up locals, sat., or cable box with HDMI or component outputs.

All I can say is that I attached the cable to the receiver and had dish activate it. and all is working just fine. hope that helps some. Good luck to you.

I actually used the Direct TV coaxial cable that was on the old dish mount to connect the outdoor antenna w/ my digital TV. I did have to attach a smaller diameter pipe to mount w/ the outdoor antenna but was simple enough.

there is a hook up on the back for that - there are hook ups for satellite and antenna. Hope that helps

Thanks for the quick response. I am still getting 2 different answers. It sounds like if you hook it up before the Cable Box or TV that you can do both.

we conntected directly to our Dish Satellite. I don't think a converter is needed whether you hook to cable, TV antenna, or satellite. That should all be covered in the instruction booklet though. I love mine in my kitchen while I prepare meals.

You will need to connect this to your computer, order a cable card from your supplier and use a Wm extender to access tv channels on your regular tv.

We just installed this very setup in our Rv. The directv tech had to run it through the satellite input in our trailer vs. Cable. Why, I do not know.

Make sure the TV has the connection on it then yes! Need the go into menu and indicate wired vs wifi connection also after you run wire from router.

use tricable with red,white and yellow wires on both ends. Attach to your unit and match to t.v.colors. You will be up and running in 2 min.

No, mine setup only uses dish. I believe you can buy a model just for direct TV.

I screws into a small box. On the other side of that box a cable runs to the outside antenna. It does not hook up to a computer. It is a very easy set up. You need to find the direction of where the tower is to point the antenna.
