    HOW CAN I RUN A CONNECTION FROM ROUTER?

    I am trying to setup a TM500s for a friend but he lives in two terraced houses where the router is in house 2 (ground floor) and he wants it fitting in his bedroom in house 1. What is the best way to run a connection up to the receiver?

    I use a long cat5 cable to go from one floor to another and it works fine you can get them from 0.5mt right up to 50mt try www.cabling4less.co.uk.

      easiest way would be to buy another router that can be set up as an 'Access Point' in his bedroom then a small cable to the STB or just run a cable (305 m max unless you use repeaters) if you make your own use shielded cable.
