I want to send sky signal to bedroom upstairs. what product works best - i`ve read about the digisender - any other wireless options? (signal needs to penetrate concrete floors)
I use the Sky "magic-eye" , works perfectly and can use the Sky remote in the bedroom to change channels etc.
I thought that the magic eye was not wireless? Does it not require coaxial cable from the box downstairs to the bedroom upstairs?
would this involve paying a second subscription to sky per month? what would second box cost - got first free on beginners dealThis is correct....the magic eye does require a coaxial cable. The problem with a coaxial cable also is you cannot receive stereo sound in the bedroom and the picture is less than perfect. I do not believe a good quality wireless solution is available yet !!!Go for a second box well worth it !!!
If there is a tv outlet in the bedroom then you can backfeed the signal by plugging it into the outlet in the living room and using the co ax socket in the bedroom with a magic eye for rhe channel control.

15 Euro p/m for multi room and I am not sure if you have to pay for a second box or they are giving them away for free under one of their many promotions. Recently my second box broke down when it was out of warranty and they said there would be a call out charge to fix it. I said no problem I will cancel my multi room subscription and sure enough they came back to me a minute later saying they would fix (they actually replaced it) for free.
