I have my STB in my downstairs Living Room with output going via coaxial cable to TVs in the Living Room and also upstairs in my Bedroom. What I really want is to be able to operate the STB while i'm upstairs, changing channels etc using the remote control.

I've seen devices which have a sender (you keep in the room your are watching telly from) and receiver (keep in the room with the STB) unit. This gets the remote control signal, converts it to radio, and then reconverts it to the Infra red. These seem to be marketed for use with videos, satellite TV, etc. I cannot find one that works with the NTL digital STB (Pace 1000 type).

Anyone know of anything that works, and who would sell it?
