I've been and bought a system, how do i connect it to the internet? i'm with Virgin, do I need a seperate internet connection(modem) or can i run it through my Virgin Modem

I assume the recorder has an RJ45 network (LAN) port on it?

Do you have a wireless router setup or are you using a USB modem for your Virgin broadband/cable?

What system is it? Might be able to have a look for some instructions.

No, the Modem is an ethernet connection which i also have on the DVR and i have 2 usb connections on the DVR

The DVR is a inspire DVR04 blue (not the colour of it)

Thankyou for taking the time to sort that for me, but it might aswell be in hieroglyphics , I guess i'll just use the system with a seperate monitor
