Just wondered if virgin adapted the same method but appears not so which is good for me. The main incoming cable from the green box is a bigger cable as I had signaling problems albeit we ar not far from the green box. One cable straight through the wall to main tv and two cables to (1) modem (2) second tv. I am told things have improved somewhat with virgin (lets hope so) My intentions are to run cables which I have had dropped off from virgin into my loft and then down to the two add tv/boxes. This would require a 3 way spilter downstairs at the brown external box (1) main tv (2) modem (3) one add box. upstairs at modem a two way splitter modem/ second tv. sounds complicated but not really, just want to get everything right for the big day!
Many thanks to all.
Your setup sounds fine, let us know how the big day goes!
