    No,they wont charge you for the + function. Ring them with the serial no. of your new box and they will match one of the cards to that box free & gratis.Make sure you ask them to enable the recording function in the newly set-up box. That is assuming you already have multiroom, otherwise they'll be looking for a further €15 per month from you !!!

    100pm is a lot of money, are you sure you need that much functionality?

    You'll also need an Octo lnb (if you haven't already got one) and another cable(s) ran to wherever you're planning on using the box to get the full usage out of it.

    Hiya,
    I'm trying to do the same thing.
    Problem is, the second sitting room where I want the sky+ only has one coaxial cable coming from out of the wall.
    Any idea what I can do besides pull down an additional cable from the satellite through the walls? That would be a pain since, obvioulsy, the dish is on the roof and the sitting room is on the ground floor.

    Thanks in advance!
