Photo credits
Some guides use real photos of remotes, cables and devices to help you find the right button or port. Every photo on this page is openly licensed. We saved our own copy of each one instead of linking to the original, and the list below shows who took it, where it came from, which license applies and what we changed.
What we change. We crop and resize photos. Where a step points at a button, we draw a blue ring around it. We do not retouch the photos or change what they show.
Photos are not screenshots. A photo shows what a device looks like, not what its screen shows. When a guide needs a screenshot that we cannot reuse, it keeps its written steps and does not show a picture of the screen.
Your device may look different. Remotes, modems and routers change from model to model. Each caption says which model the photo shows.
