These aren't what I consider cheap with the shipping included, but they are selling them on Ebay.

Step 1. Log into the x-fta dongle by connecting your pc into one of the 4 lan ports and grabbing a dhcp ip address.
after that you log into the web interface by typing 192.168.1.1 into the url bar of your web browser.

Step 2. Go to the connection page. Select wireless bridge. set the bridge ip to
an address in the subbnet of your primary router.
If your primary router is 192.168.0.1 then set it to 192.168.0.2 or similar. and if its 192.168.1.1 set it to 192.168.1.2 or similar. remember after you change this number and save, you will need to type that number into the url bar. Set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. set the ap/gateway ip address to that of your primary router. Like 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 depending on which brand you have. Select repeater disable.then click scan and select your primary router from the list. then enter your password if any and click save. wait about 2 minutes and enter the new ip address that you had selected for the bridge ip into the url bar.

Step 3. Relocate your x-fta dongle from your pc to your satellite receiver and connect the serial cable that came with your satellite receiver to the x-fta dongle. then power on the x-fta dongle and wait 2 minutes before connecting to it from your pc. After you log into the x-fta dongle, please go to
the satellite menu and check enable rq-sssp. then go down to receiver settings and and select which type of satellite receiver you have.
Coolsat, Captiveworks or gbox for all others. Then go down to card server settings and on the existing one click edit.
Leave the host alone, set the port to 11112, username is timmy and your password is worren .
des key is C67A0C1A16ACD4FE5A6A64DBBAA9 . then click close and apply, after that click save all followed by
build config file and then click start. and then you should have tv.
