Yes, get a crossover network cable and connect to your PC network card.

Make sure the network card has the correct IP Address, Subnet mask and Default gateway to connect to the Dbox. The IP Address should be 1 less than the dbox, ie if the dbox is 192.168.1.10, the network card should be 192.168.1.9.
