Default problems setting with setting up box.

Hi folks hows it going.

I bought a euro box and its working great. love it.

i want to use it in my bedroom and use the normal virgin box down stairs.

I'm unsure how the splitter works.

I bought an f splitter, do I need to buy another cable.

The setup is confusing me a bit.

It's quite simple, put the main cable feed into one side of the splitter, then from the other side run one cable to your normal Virgin box and the other to your Eurovox box.

You will probably need 2 more cables. The splitter connects to your existing cable, then 1 cable to your VM box and another to your Eurovox.

You need F to F for the VM box and you can use a F to Co-ax or F to F (with the adapter) cable for the Eurovox.

Hope that's clear enough

yeah i understand.

I already have coax cable going to my room from the virgin box, so i just need to fit the f adaptor to that.
