Sky Multiroom
Do any of you have sky multiroom ? if so can you tell me if both boxes are connected to a phone line ? sky insist this has to be done but having not had my sky+ box connected to the phone since installation i have my doubts . if yours is connected could you please try disconnecting the second box from the phone socket and let me know if everything still functions , cheers

yeah i got a similar device to sky, can change chanells and everything but obviously depends what you want it for as you have to watch the same channel in both rooms, guess if your in a family its not so good.
on a side note, u dont need to be connected to a phone line, i aint at the min and never have! it dont effect the channels etc and upgrades! they probs say u have to have your phone line connected as obviously it benefits them, god knows what they use it for that we dont know about but im sure they gather data on peoples tv usages.

they said it has to be connected for multiroom to function properly , this was confirmed by an engineer who popped into where i work . Chris , can you please try unlugging the phone socket in one of your EXTRA boxes and then tell be if it still functions properly .
i already have a magic eye , but as you said is not quite the same as you have to watch the same channel on both sets
