KBOX K1 Wireless Install
Heres some info on making your K1 wireless.
Option 1 - Wireless Print Server
using this option you will need a wireless router, and a wireless print server, i've seen netgear sell this for about 50 bucks refurbished. the print server would connect via ethernet port to the receiver. this way is a little complicated but works well and can be used for other peripherals as well.
Option 2 - Powerline Adapters
using this option you would need two powerline adapters, a broadband router, and doesn't have to be wireless. you would plug one of the adapters to an electrical outlet and connect the ethernet cable from the adapter to the router, then the other adapter you plug to an electrical outlet wherever your receiver is and connect the ethernet cable from the adapter to the receiver. this way is very simple and easy to install, no configuration needed, these adapters use your homes electrical current to transfer the internet connectivity. but some homes use different circuits and have reports that it doesn't always work.
There is other options, like one long cable to wherever your receiver is, but its messy unless your an network installer and have experience in hiding the cables well.
These methods are the most cost efficient way, there are other methods but cost more than these options, so it's not mentioned.
