    Thanks I'm in the Dublin.. So that's great news.. Do you need a splitter or can iis there useable outlets to take broadband and analogue tv from?

    Cheers

    The modem normally comes with a splitter, but you may need a cable with a F type on one end and a round TV male plug on the other end, to connect it into the back of your TV. Then do a search for channels.

    Note splitting the signal reduces the levels. Depending on the existing levels splitting may cause an OK TV picture to become snowy, or a good broadband connection to become dodgy or give slower uploads. Ideally test the internet speeds with and without a splitter, just in case the splitter is reducing the levels too low.

    An alternative option is to get an xbmc box and install the MX RTE player addon which reliably streams RTE1 and Network2 in 720p.
    They also stream options in lesser quality on a sliding scale if you have reduced broadband.
