Firstly : Double posting is frowned upon on this forum

It is best to leave the original box connected , And if your paying for it why not move it to another room and use it there. All you need is a splitter on the feed to use 2 or more boxes.

When purchasing a third party box beware of clones flooding the market at present and our buy from a reputable dealer , We have a member known as Lincsat who would only sale you a genuine box and provides and excellent service.

Here is his link:

Double posting means posting the same thing on different threads. You won't get more answers by putting up more than one identical post.

ok,i thought by putting in 2 different sections my query would just reach a wider audience.
never used a forum before.
