Default Interactive problem
Hi All,

Can anyone help with a problem i have with my subbed box?
I have a dbox2 downstairs working fine and my subbed box upstairs.
i have split the cable using a proper cable splitter and a booster to strenghten the signal upstairs.
My problem is that i can't get any of the interactive stuff (red button, catch up tv) to work. If i take the booster off then the interactive stuff works but i lose most of the channels?!?!?!

u need a booster with a return path....most cheap versions haven't but r useful to stop talkback.....u could swop the boxes around but i'm guessing u have a limited package on the subbed box

something like
