Hi again, I know this is possible and have tried it before with wireless video senders but my internet connection interferes with it. I want the sky tv in my bedroom but am not prepared to pay a extra 10 pounds for sky multiroom. is this possible?

£1.39 a meter here http://www.maplin.co.uk/Search.aspx?criteria=XS17T&DOY=25m8
But probably less than half that from your local hardware store0 -

If you get the little "magic eye mouse" thingy you can even turn the sky over, I had one for years and they are very good. Now I have had the whole house wired up by an aerial man so that I can turn the sky over from any room in the house - that was a one off payment to get the system in and working.
In actual fact he did better than we wanted, you see my Mum lives in the granny annexe and therefore we do have the multiroom. When he wired up the telly's he did it so that we can CHOOSE which of the Sky boxes we watch from, therefore when my toddler is watchign Cbeebies in the living room I can take over Mums box and watch something else in the kitchen.The best things in life are NOT free - but they sure are cheaper with MSE!:j0 -
i live in a normal sized semi detached house so do u no how much co-ax wire i would need?0
