If i buy another sky box and put in bedroom what do i do about a card for it?Surely i'd only need a copy.?

Answer 1

ive got sky + in my living room and weve put our old sky box upstairs in our bedroom we pay an extra £10 on top of our bill so we can watch the same channels in our room its worth it i dont think you can get the card copyed that would be illegal youd have to contact sky to get a card

Answer 2

Sky boxes are " Paired " with each individual card, to use two boxes you will need to have a new " LNB " fitted to your dish.....a Dual LNB, which gives you 2 seperate signals......and it will cost you an extra £10 per month, if you have SKY + downstairs, there are no Clone cards at all, the system Sky use change the codes quite frequently, go to www.digitalspy.co.uk

Answer 3

When you configure the sky box your card "marries" with the box... it'll then only work with the new box... if you take a multiroom subscription you get a second card. (£10 per month) but it will still marry the box you configure with it, so it's ten pound per room, or take your sky box from room to room.... i have two spare boxes if you want one.. was going to put one in each bedroom untill i realised the "tie"

Answer 4

you need another subscription, hence another card, you could always use the card from downstairs when you are upstairs which would save you money, i think it works, i know it has before, but sky dont appreciate it that, but if more then one person wants to watch at the same time you either need a multiroom subcription or just get another subscription at the basic price? you cant get a copy, I thought you can, which would be idealistic as it would save a lot of money but sky are sly.

Answer 5

unlucky 1card 1 box 1 subscription - according to sky

Try running a cable from your existing box into the bedroom and using one of those works through walls remote recievers that you plug into the wall in 2 places and it sends the signal to your sky box from the bedroom.

Answer 6

We use a mouse upstairs which we bought from sky and got a seperate remote, but it does only allow us to watch the same channel upstairs as downstairs.

Answer 7

as a fashion to apply your boyfriends card on your Sky+ HD receiver, you will would desire to ask Sky in the event that they are able to re-authorise your boyfriends card at the same time because it is on your Sky + HD receiver. they'll require countless information alongside with the cardboard quantity, receiver version ,serial quantity and positioned up code.

Answer 8

you need a mirror card for your other sky box

Answer 9

Sorry it's £10 per month but then you can watch a different programme than the main one
