Cable Forum - View Single Post - Using Virgin cable for Broadband, Virgin TV and Freeview?

Hello all,

Sorry if this is a question that has been answered previously.

So. I Have reduced my Virgin package down to one box, along with 100mb broadband (and telephone). I previously had 3 boxes, and the virgin wiring is still in for them. I would like to have the other two televisions in the house, plus one new one, running Freeview HD (the televisions come with this). So one Tivo subscription, 3 Freeview HD, and broadband.

My question is can I use the existing virgin supplied cable by tapping into it (some sort of T piece?) with a cable from my rooftop aerial? Would this allow the 3 'signals' - freeview from aerial; broadband; and Virgin television, to travel around the house and be converted at the television, modem, Tivo respectively?

Thanks for any help!

Ben
