Below are all of Stephen's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Hi David. yes I do have a dish, I use a simple freesat box in the kitchen and an old Sky box in the sitting room. No I can't get iplayer on the old sky box or the simple freesat box, so I know I have to upgrade. I seem to be getting the message that I have to have two feed from the dish to run HD and a feed from the router for iplayer. Is that correct? BUT, can I use a HD box with my old analog TV?

Scuse my ignorance, but what is a BB connect?
freeview is no good to me as I don't have a freeview arial, but I do have a satellite dish that connects to my equipment so I might as well continue to use that. I don't want to get rid of a perfectly good television but I do want either play back or iplayer without having to pre record everything if I can find a way to do it.

Hi, I've been reading up the back posts and think you all seem to be implying that if I buy a freesat HD box I will be able to get iplayer. Is that correct?
Also, I need to know, do I need two coaxial lines from the dish or will one do the job?

Hi Briantist. I have an analog TV and an old Freesky box but would like to be able to get iplayer etc. What is my best way to achieve this? I am on BT broadband at a measured 7mbps. Your video tells me I can wire up a freesat box from the router, but is it possible to use wifi to do this and if so is it effective? Do I need two Arial feeds to make best use of a freesat box?
Thanks
Stephen
