Just use the software CD that came with the WIFI and follow the instructions.

All your putting in is your ROUTER WEP key then plug into back starview 7

You connect to your PC with Ethernet and power it up, you can use the USB for power. Then run the setup app from the mini-CD

You would need to reboot the Starview after the Vonets is setup so it gets the IP address from that. You can check in the Network settings on the box that it has received a valid IP address.

It may also be that the voltage from the Starview is a little low for the Vonets, you could try it with a 10-12v PSU, something like what is used with a VM modem.
