    I have seen this device that plugs into one Sky box & takes it to the next room. It will show on TV2 whatever channel is being viewed in the other room on TV1. I need a fairly strong one that will work from downstairs to upstairs. Anyone know what one is called? Preferably one I can buy online.
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Thanks but I was hoping for something wireless?

    Thats a remote control link, it will not transmit the picture, the OP I think is looking for a wireless video sender. So far i have not seen one used successfully, they usually suffer interference from microwave ovens .

    Is that only when you use the microwave or all the time?
    Thanks

    They can also play puck with a wireless network if you have broadband.

    That would be fantastic if I could have it by using wireless! I already have a strong signal all over the house! How would I go about that?

    What you're looking for is a Wireless Video sender, heres a link to whats on sale in Argos.

    What Tony means is that these type of devices suffer from interference when your microwave is on, and what kaizersoze means is that these devices can interfere with your wireless broadband signal in your house.

    After reading the posts again I fully understand. Thanks for making it clear I really mis-understood the one about the broadband! I feel so stupid! Thanks again.
