You'll need to invest in a router.

A router is not worked via leads as such it is worked via signal sending.
But for what you want well you will have to connect the box to the router if you want to stream from the box via eternet, and there is no simple way around it regretfully.
You should of asked this question m8 before you jumped in and bought the box, as we would of told you this and it would of saved you money.
Useing a router wih your box you have to have it pluged into the router.

somebody actually in deffrent site gave me a better idea,

connect the box to the pc(which is connect to the internate by wireless) and share the internate by the nic!
think thats a good idea.

and forget to say using the crooswire from pc nic to box

Suppose you could do it this way, but you'll need your PC on at all times when watching the box.

You could buy yourself a cheap wireless repeater with a ethernet port switch on back too and use that to connect to PC and the dreambox.
