Just got my ntl installed,im NTL MMDS,what do I need to do to connect this into one of my bedrooms?Thanks
 
I presume that MMDS uses a decoder box? In which case you may need a cable extension and another box. It may be that you are supposed to tell NTL that you want this and pay them for the installation and rental of another point.

I'm not sure what boxes you are talking about. But you probably need a two of the same sorts of MMDS receiver boxes and an additional cable run to the second point (from the antenna or tapped into the main cable run - not sure).

You can always use a video sender, if you are prepared to watch the same channel that you are watching on your main TV.

Ye heard about that one,but I wudnt be watching the same thing as the one downstairs.Have an ntl box on the wall in the bedroom with two connections out of them,one says fm and the other tv.Tried to bring the ntl dvr upstairs and connect the same as downstairs and i cudnt get any signal at all.Wonder is this box on the wall "turned off" and do I have to get ntl to turn it back on?
 
Yes would be interested to know if you can move around the NTL dvr box like you can the Paice boxes?
 
Yes, you can move the NTL box around once the box on the wall is connected (even if it is analogue). I moved it up so the kids could watch a movie in our room while we had a dinner party.
