television

[oldmancap]

Hi, can anyone advise me. I have sky tv in my lounge. I would like to be able to get sky in the bedroom upstairs without loads of wires.

Is there any kind of wireless router for a tv i can buy?

Is it easy to fit up and any advice on which one to buy at a reasonable price?

i got an aerial bloke to come and fit the additional wiring for less than £60!

A video sender. Argos or ebay. Worked for me before we had multi-room.

You can get multi-room service from Sky. I think it's about £20 - £30. We had it years ago.

As cathfromsaron has pointed out the best way is to have another connection cable fitted from your dish into the bedroom.

Would another cable from your dish to the bedroom work?
Doesn't it have to go through a 'box' or something?

Baldric's right.

You need a splitter from the box not the dish though the secondary viewing is then dependent on what the box is tuned to.

Yes I know about splitters aog, what I was asking was 'would a cable going directly from the dish to the bedroom, as you stated, actually do the job' I still think the signal needs to come from the sky box rather than the dish.

Thank you Zeuhl, you posted as I was typing.
:o)

Sorry I was under the impression he just wanted to run two TVs from the dish.so as to receive FreeSat TV.

You don't need a splitter from a sky box, they have two RF outputs on the back of them so they can run two TVs from them.

The 2nd RF output also supports a sky magic eye that would let you control the sky box from the bedroom.
