Could try one of these, in addition to an F splitter - http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?...ldID=&doy=18m2

(not sure how appropriate it is though)


RustyMuppet - You'd also need to make sure you used good quality coax cable, not bog standard stuff. Maplin sell the right stuff - http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...2&postcount=28

FT100 cable: http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?...ldID=&doy=18m2

FT125 cable: http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?...ID=2&doy=24m10

Plus, the connectors must be fitted correctly. If you don't have the tools to do so, it's probably best to get a cable made up specifically (Maplin can do that for you).

Oh, & doing this is against ntl's Terms & Conditions. If you screw it up, & cause degredation of your service and/or your neighbours' services, you'd have to pay for a call out etc.
