7.1 Introduction to IPTV
Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) is digital television delivered on
your television (and not PC) through high speed internet (broadband)
connection. In this service, channels are encoded in IP format and
delivered to the TV through a set top box.

The HG659b supports IPTV. You can watch IPTV from your network
service provider after your STB is conneced to the LAN port on the
HG659b.
To use the HG659b to watch IPTV, ask your network service provider
to activate IPTV services for you.
By default, your network service provider will have all related
parameters, such as the VLAN id, internet account and password, set
for you.
