    Best way to get satellite to another TV/room without cables

    Any suggestion on the above appreciated?
    Trying to do this without cables.
    Do the
    5.8GHz AV Wireless Video Senders work?
    OR
    this type of
    AV extender IR Infrared Repeater control Via Cat5/6e?

    And does the latter work thru TP links?

    Any better methods?

    If it was me I would fit another line in from the dish and use homeplugs. Other alternative is to use something like these Nikkai 5.8GHz Mini Video Sender | Maplin but your stuck watching the same channel and picture quality ain't perfect.
    If you can do it the first way there's every chance the lnb is a quad and you can move the box upstairs or down or buy another box.

      OK, but the Video senders I linked to cater for channel changing via IR too! I understand wired is always going to be better.
      But you're saying that picture isn't good.
      I currently only have a single port LNB and one box, was trying to pick easiest method, which for me is transmit it inside the house.
      My second link is thru TP links (aka homeplugs).
      What do I send via homeplugs, if I have a second box?

      Why was my op edited to change font & colour? Would like to know. It removed obvious visibility of links!

        Because members using the darcore blue Skin certain colours make it very hard to read, anyway your first option would work all you would need in place of the Cat5e cable is Homeplugs after cost though i would imagine it will come out at roughly the same price as the Extenders
