Re: Help

I am not an electricy minded person but I think someone has said before that different floors in a house run on different rings so whilst the adapters may work fine on the same ring downstairs, if you move one upstairs it may not work because it is on a different ring.

What you could do is move the shub next to the tv in the front room and then run a patch cable out the wall, up the side of the house and back in again and place a second router upstairs serving as a switch and wireless access point. I have done the same thing the other way around. We have got coax dropping down the side of the house for VM and Sky anyway so I got an electrician to drill another whole in the wall and now I have got a third cable drop going in to the sitting room to a router for downstairs which the tv, bluray player and sky box connect to.
