Hi fellow poster's, brand new member here!

If I am in the wrong place, or I'm doing this wrong, please forgive me... I will soon get used to navigating around the forums.

I have today, taken delivery of a DishTv SatBox s8200. I have set it up and am happy, but have no idea how to find or get the OnDemand apps -

(TVNZ OnDemand, 3 Now). I have a NetComm Wireless router.

Any help at all would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Did you RTM or RTFM? what did it say?

it needs to be connected to your network to get on demand stuff, page 29 for this info.

Thank your for your reply Jase, sorry...and this is where I hope people give a newbie a chance to find their feet,

How do I navigate to page 29? Is this where I will find the full answer to your suggestion?

Thanks in advance,

Jay

Thank you josh... worked it out finally.

Now I just have to learn where to post when I have an issue that I think one of the forum members may be able to help me with.
