    NE1 know where I could pick up some RG6 cable? Had a look in Maplin's but they didn't have any, recommended CT100 instead.

    Having problems with my UPC TV reception and broadband, the techie from UPC says the problem is with the internal wiring in the apartment which isn't their problem as it was preinstalled. He said to make sure and get RG6 as other cable won't be as good.

    I need to take care of it quickly so I'm looking for somewhere in Dublin where I can buy it over the counter.

    Thanks

    CT100, is a better quality than standard RG6 and most certainly will work

    Expect to pay through the nose for it in there.
    You could get 100m of RG6 online delivered for the price of about 10m Ct100 in Maplin.
    They are robbers.

    Thanks Zardoz, I realise that but as I said in my original post I need to take care of it quickly.
