Hi,

Have a situation now where I dont think Virgin will help much with.

I have 2 V+ boxes in the house, one upstairs and one downstairs. I want to relocate the upstairs one to a new room, one without any cable connections.

I have cat5 in both rooms, is it possible to pass the signal from the upstairs feed, thru cat5 to the new room. Im thinking there may be converters / baluns etc that simply convert the f-type connector to rj45, I then run the appropriate cables and then in the new room, convert it back and stick my v+ on the end

The reason I dont think VM will help is that I want this box against an internal wall which would mean running the cable thru inside walls etc
