Thumbs down problems when moving the box

Howdy again

I am having some problems again with my sagem d-box.
I can flash the box and FTP the keys and do the bouquet Wiz without a hitch.Everything is hunky dory
But when I move the box downstairs to the living room I start to get a degraded image on regional channels then lose them completely.The rest of the SKY stuff is ok but then I start to lose setanta etc.It makes a mess of my hard won bouquets and I have been reflashing like mad for the last 3 days to no avail. All images work andromeda,lakystylas etc.
On the same cable downstairs there is a legit V box in the back room TV I done the cabling myself.Should I have a filter installed.
The cable conx goes from the outside street box to my room( where the PC is) where everything works perfectly.The other conx from the street box goes into front room for the D-BOX then into the back room via a cable splitter to the virgin box.Maybe im moving the box too quickly after flashing etc and maybe it will settle down.

Any thoughts

KK

Try running G Box on the Andromda image
Make sure section scan is turned off
And try a booster on the downstairs connection
As tuner strenghts vary,and the upstairs sig may be stronger than the down
Do the channels return
When you take the box back up stairs ....................Paul
