Powerline 200 adapters are on sale for £15 at Currys

Bought them last week - £14.99 - using them as I type - work very well apparently using the wiring in the house to move the broadband around - the quality of our new youview TV box is very very good with them.

No no - still in the UK at the moment - just impressed with the kit.

We use a dongle in Turkey and I take a free view recorder box full of programmes (300 hrs) each time we go back (I rotate 2 boxes and record whilst we are in Turkey as well) and with DVD's - Turksat and Nilesat we have more than enough to watch.

Ps  I have an aversion to direct debits   ;)

I take them in my hand luggage and have not had a problem - we just record lots of repeats and current series etc and it works for us - like now Bletchley Circle will be recorded whilst we watch something else and we will watch it in the summer and this time we will be watching last tango in Halifax and Death in Pemberly in Turkey in February  :D

Sounds a good idea. This wireless booster, is this little sky multi room box a wireless booster?

Mine is a wifi extender (Powerline PL200 @ £14.99) but yes the sky one is a booster as are some of the links referred to earlier in the topic.
