Default VM TV Package, Adding Multiroom

Hey guys,

I've opted for the VM self install option of cable BB and Size L TV package. I've previously had NTL a few years ago.

I've been reading about the Eurovox boxes on here and am very interested to know if i can use one of those and a spliter in order to feed the cable TV into a second room?

I realise that i could cancel the TV and use the internet connection and a eurovox to gain access to all channels, but even then, could i use two or more eurovox boxes to make my own 'MultiRoom', whilst having just BB?

Cheers.

BB and TV come down the same cable, so in theory, you can use many Modems or Eurovoxes on the same feed with splitter(s) in line. The more times you split the signal, the weaker it gets - you can boost the signal, but that can cause problems if not done right. Usually, you should be OK for 4 or 5 devices connected

Sounds good,

So i could leave my package as it is, get a dreambox or eurovox and a splitter (remembering to scan direct first before putting the splitter in), keep my VM box downstairs with standard package, and have full channels upstairs?

Also, this would still work if i canceled the TV and kept the BB, changing the VM box for a second eurovox, right?
