hi
av senders work fine on max ,you have a cable running upstairs so all you need is a remote extender something like the pyramid ,one device upstairs the other downstairs just transmits your remote signal and blast it out to max and changes channel

Hi
no any remote extender will work ok ,try argos they have some cheap , regarding tw boxes any AV will work but won't transmit the remote signal ,there is av sender that does its called digisender gold over £100 ,but you can connect up to 4 devices to it .problem with av senders is they use 2.4 ghz same as wireless broadband so your or neighbours wireless network could cause problems

yes these

POWERMID XL Wireless Infra-red remote controller extender system transmits your infrared remote control signals via a wireless transmitter to a receiver which then sends them out as infrared again to any equipment in the room.
POWERMID system Allows you to operate ALL* Infra-Red Remote Controlled Equipment from ANYWHERE in your house. (It does not send picture or sound. You need a cable or a Videosender for that). More versatile than the TV Link.
POWERMID XL includes both transmitter and receiver. Both units have a 230v mains power connection lead with UK plug. (Plug can be removed for Europe).
Dimensions approx.: 75mm x 75mm x 110mm high. More details
* Not some cable boxes.
WARNING: The POWERMID XL can interfere with the operation of systems such as the ADT wireless security alarm!
POWERMID XL remote control system £34.95
I have a set of these an ex display set can do you for £22 delivered might be a couple of scratches on them but maybe not but never been used
