Can anyone recommend a wireless box that sends the sky signal to another room?
I have tried them a few years ago but the picture was always crap have they improved?

I have been researching this too, on my rounds I came across this, it seems like they are pretty good. Think I am going to go for the SAC HD Wireless Sender.

I would be interested to find out what our fellow PHers use.

Cheers guys and hope this helps.

Sky multiroom does a pretty decent job smile You have to make sure you get a good deal on it though, if you phone up you can get it for as little as £2.50 a month, including the SKY + HD box and installation, for the first year.

Although the subsequent years will be more, with a bit of haggling you should still be able to get it relatively cheaply, and over say 3 years, average about £6 a month, and at least you get the ability to watch different channels in each room, record/rewind etc, at HD quality.

Even over 3 years that works out cheaper than a lot of the wireless senders, and you are ensured a good quality picture.

I would have thought there would be a solution where the Sky+ box could send the signal over the wifi to a Smart TV, Like the SkyGo thing but that only seems to work on laptops, phones or tablets.

cant you just use Sky Go, doesn't cost anything, watch it on your laptop, or plug a VGA cable from laptop to TV, don't understand why sky go is free, but you have to pay for sky Multi rooms (assuming you already have 2 sky boxes)
