Hi,

I've recently moved into a flat where cable was already installed. The previous owner had already had the cable "messed" with. So currently there are two active VM boxes in the main bedroom. One cable coming in,being split, into the two VM boxes on the wall.

Box 1 : Wire straigh to VM tv box and to TV.

Box 2. Wire to anther splitter, each end going into the other 2 bedrooms. In one bedroom its then been split again and being used for the Modem/Router and also an analogue tv signal.

The previous owner has not however put a wire into the kitchen....

Question is, is it legit to use the analogue signal off the cable line, and when trying other splitter's from the likes of B&Q the analogue tv signal will still work, however the modem will then no longer connect. Ideally i'd just like to somehow move my Virgin box for the TV into the kitchen without really upsetting anything else...

Thanks for your help.
