Thanks in advance

It's not as simple as that. You will need the second box activated by Virgin and pay a multiroom subscription. Probably not what you wanted to hear, but the second box might not work otherwise.

- one of these - no cables between rooms needed

- one of these - stick it on the end of the cable / splitter it will pick up FTA only and [ if you put a hard drive in it ] it will record programmes to play back later.

The 'suggestions' given in post's #2 & #5 are illigal tampering & you risk disconnection of your VM services if caught.You'll need to get VM to come & run a second feed from the ETB (Gray box on outside wall of house) to where you want it.You cant run it yourself as the cabling & fittings you can buy from the likes of Maplins are'nt up to the job & you'll need the signal levels checked otherwise it'll affect your other services.
Chances are tho that the box you already have is blocked & therefore useless.If it's a chipped or cloned box,be prepared to have issues with your broadband if you do & the chance of being found to have one as it'll affect other subscrbers off your tap bank in the street cabinet.
