i have a super hub in my front room which connects to a TiVo and to a TV.
there is also a third connection which goes to a wall socket which then runs an Ethernet cable around the outside wall to the back room
room where it comes in to another wall socket

in this other room i take an ethernet cable to a second tivo for multi room streaming..i also have a second wireless router in this room and what i want to do is - split the Ethernet connection to the TiVo and router, so i can use both at the same time.

i have tried connecting direct to wireless router and then out to TiVo but then multi room does not work

is there anything i can get for under £10, that will allow the two simultaneous connections that i need... hope this makes some sense
