Default Additional Set Top Box Question

Hi,

I'm new to this so please bear with me if this has been answered before.

I am thinking of buying 2 of the Eurovox Max boxs so that i can watch different channels in 2 different rooms as i have heard many good things about it.

I was going to place an order with NTL for the Free TV Pack deal but as i want to watch 2 different channels in different rooms would it be better for me to order the Additional Set Top Box for an extra £15 a month or is there a way to run an extra cable yourself to another room, if so any instructions or guidance would be highly appreciated.

Many thanks for your time and help.

Kind Regards

If the signal strength into your house is sufficient, it's quite easy to buy a 2 way splitter (about £5), a length of cable a F Plug and a TV Co-ax plug and run the lead yourself.

Very easy to do. I dont subscribe to ant TV package with Telewest and have split my internet connection and am also running 3 x Euro Vox Max and they are all perfect. No performance issues at all
