So yeah, satellite needs an internet connection for "OnDemand" stuff (which it actually has to download since there's no way to do it like cable does it over the airwaves like that).
Your options are as follows:
1.) Go through your receiver box's menu and find some way to disable the WiFi connection. It is a non-essential feature, but one that's enabled by default.
2.) Hook up an ethernet cable to your actual receiver and leave the game consoles like they were. That should help, unless your internet is just crappy in general.
How often would you be watching satellite and playing a game at the same time, anyway?
