    Help Sending wireless internet connection to a satellite receiver

    Hello Gang,

    Have got a satellite reciever that i need to connect to the internet connection. Only problem is that the router is in the living room and the sat box upstairs.

    Dont want to run a wire to it, any other suggestions? is there a wireless alternative that i can stick in the back of the sat box? in the ethernet?

    Cheers in advance

    I only got the spam mail for this on Monday.

    I'm not sure I have a use for one though as my router is only a couple of feet away from VU+ box.

    Fair point but its the most usefull piece of spam Ive had in a long time.

    I now use one on my VU+ duo so I can use my homeplugs for the xbox1 xbmc, and the second I use on my SkyHD box for anytime+

    if i had a duo i would rather have it plugged in as when streaming to ipad with second tuner you need a proper connection.
