When prompted by the on-screen instructions, enter a 4-digit Parental Control

to select the type of content you would like to restrict from viewing on the T-Box.
If you select ‘No restrictions’, you’ll be able to watch all content on your T-Box
without any restriction.
Make sure you keep a secure record of the PIN you set, as you’ll need it to unlock
access to certain channels and programs based on their classication.
The Parental Control function is designed to help you control what channels and
programs are watched in your home. However, it should never replace adult supervision,
and we recommend you be involved in what programs your family chooses to watch.
CONNECT TO THE INTERNET
YourT-Boxdoesn’tjustbringyoufree-to-airdigitalTVchannels–italso
connects to BigPond
®
broadband so that you can watch a range of live BigPond
TV channels, BigPond Videos and choose from movies and TV shows from
the BigPond Movies library. To enjoy all of this extra entertainment, plus the
benets of the latest software updates, you need to connect your T-Box to the
internet through your Wi-Fi enabled multiport Home Network Gateway modem,
compatiblewith802.11g/nandaneligibleBigPondbroadbandconnection.For
more information please visit telstra.com.au/tbox
The speed of your BigPond broadband connection will determine the speed at which
your T-Box can deliver your BigPond TV and Movie services. So when you first connect
to the internet, the available media streaming quality – ‘high’ or ‘standard’ – will be
displayed on screen.
If you want to change this streaming quality later, you can do so from the Settings menu.
See page 56, 'Trouble with BigPond TV' for more information.

your T-Box will vary with the number of computers and internet devices using your
access connection at the same time, the type of home network connection and
your BigPond broadband plan.
