    Amazon sell them, or 7 day shop.

    Or you could use a longer Ethernet cable.

    Hi yes I saw these myself about 10 mins ago think I ll buy them since I need them. A longer cable would need to go across the room out of the door and into another room and across that room too so I won t want that. Maybe I should have bought a humax free sat.

    I have upgraded my Humax freeview to a Humax freesat bought from Humax direct for £125. Connect it to your existing sky dish. Job done works perfectly. I must point out that these devices can record two progs at the same time and for that you will need two feeds from your dish,

    BBecause it won't work. Is that clear enough? Got the YouView box working yet? It connects to your aerial.

    Yes it's clear enough thank you. I m not thick you know believe it or not. :o No I haven t got it working yet as I was going to wait till the sky ran out in two weeks time before I did. I m going to order the powerline adapters you mentioned . I guess they have ethernet cables included. I ve seen some in Maplins all included for £30 :)

    Sorry for not including reason.
    Freeview, Youview connects to an AERIAL
    Sky, FreeSat connects to a DISH.
    You seemed to have chosen AERIAL when I gave my advice.
