Had a word with local euronics shop,,their advice is hard wire connection,, save me a load a head scratching trying to get WiFi or a second router to work
My friend that lives here has the sky contract so its a live service ,,she likes her sport ,,not for me .A sky box will still work without paying any money to $ky!
Another question.
As many of you already have smart tellies ,,there are apparently two ariel connections ,,one RF (old style plug) and a single free sat connector which is built in ,,,do I need a seperate dish as its only got one input ( sky boxes have two imput cables with HDMI out to telly ,,or could I take a feed of the sky box through an RF lead into the freesat plug ,,( no I dont want sky before you say use it )
The guy at the shop said yes ,,its got built in freesat decoder and the regular aerial socket,,( LG55UP81006LA )BTW: It is relatively rare for TV's sold for the UK market to have a built-in satellite receiver and even then they aren't 'freesat' * ones, so if you want a smart TV which can also receive satellite channels, make sure that it definitely has the sat connector on the back.
* If the TV is 'freesat' enabled, it will give an EPG as well as the channels, if it isn't you will just get the satellite channels.
Don't fully understand the question sorry not do I know the answer but a freesat TV won't give you anything that a freeview via an aerial willMy friend that lives here has the sky contract so its a live service ,,she likes her sport ,,not for me .
So because the hdmi port is in use to her telly ,,could I run a feed from the RF port to another for the freesat service on a smart telly ,,cant find anything on the net about it
It will if you're relying on the Bilsdale TransmitterDon't fully understand the question sorry not do I know the answer but a freesat TV won't give you anything that a freeview via an aerial will
