How do I connect my Moxi system to my broadband connection using a Powerline
connector?
If you do not have an Ethernet connection close to your Moxi Mate, you have the option of using
Powerline AV adapters. Powerline AV adapters will use your electrical wiring as a transmission
medium. Connect one adapter to your modem with an Ethernet cable, and plug it into an outlet.
Connect the other adapter to Moxi with an Ethernet cable, and plug it into an outlet.
Note: For Powerline AV Adapters to work properly, make sure that both outlets are on the same
electrical circuit.
Note: Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations regarding limitations and requirements.
Create a new Moxi account
Why do I need a Moxi account?
You must have an active, properly configured Moxi account so that Moxi can provide the correct
Moxi features on your TV.
How do I set up a Moxi account?
First, click on the Activate a Moxi link on www.moxi.com and enter your Moxi ID number,
respond to the security image and select Continue. Follow the directions to enter a user ID (e-
mail address), password and security question; click continue and confirm the login credentials;
complete the account information and name the device; select your cable provider and channel
lineup; and finally receive your Registration Key.
I already have an account for a Moxi device. Can I use it for a different Moxi
device?
Yes, you can register additional Moxi devices in your existing Moxi account by selecting Manage
Moxi Devices, and then Add a New Moxi. Answer all the questions for the new device.
What is a Registration Key?
After you successfully create your Moxi account and register your Moxi system, you will receive a
Registration Key by email, which must be entered during the Setup process on your TV screen.
Can I get my Registration Key from my Moxi account?
After the Registration Key is emailed to you, it remains available online for a few days. Go to
www.moxi.com, sign in, click My Account, and then click Manage Moxi Devices. The Activation
column for the device in question contains the Registration Key. If the device is not activated
within five days, the Key is no longer active. You will have to activate the device again to receive
a new Registration Key.
System Setup
After plugging in and powering up the Moxi system, I am seeing various screens
saying the Moxi system is checking and updating. How long should that take?
If your Moxi system needs critical updates before starting, the Moxi Setup downloads them
automatically. This could take up to 45 minutes, depending on your network connection. If there
is a problem, you will receive an error message.
