[QUOTE="gbyleveldt, post: 76911, member: 122"] The TV eyes are super temperamental, but once you get them working they are brilliant and much better than those Ellies remote extenders. The most important thing to make sure of is that you should never, ever run in a star configuration (or limit as much as possible) as the backscatter from the network confuses the receiver. Daisy chaining is best and I've managed to get it working with 2 receivers on the same bus using DC Pass Passive splitters. The secret was to make sure the bit 'Teeing' off is as short as possible. This means that a cable runs from room to room, with the splitters just above the TV in the ceiling and the cable going to the TV being as short as possible. The total run is arouns 25m and it works perfect. Oh ja, make sure to use quality cable and F-connectors. Your connections need to be perfect and avoid old cable/ cable joins [/QUOTE]
