    Afternoon All

    Hopefully the right forum. I'm with VM (BB/TV/Phone)...thinking about changing...but so many differing views and experiences that I'm not sure. Anyway, my query is about existing coax cabling. Our house had plenty of TV points when we moved in. Had a few issues with BB speeds recently and VM engineer was asking about the internal cabling. I've no idea of what state it's in...or how it's routed around the house, etc. If it needed to be tested...and perhaps upgraded/repaired...is this something for an electrician or a specialist TV/satellite company ?. I can't really blame VM for issues with my internal cabling.

    Any suggestions appreciated.

    If you're changing to the likes of Vodafone or eir for tv, you won't be using the existing coax for multi room or even main point anyway. If you go sky they'll need to run a pair of coax in from the dish to your sky box.
    I think the new sky q box uses wifi or homeplugs for multiroom, so again you won't need the existing wiring.
