    Hi,

    I'm new here and am interested in getting a Starview box but have a few questions regarding my NTL input.

    Current setup:
    - living room has N*L cable coming in (from outside) to a PACE DVB box.
    - bedroom has N*L cable coming in (from outside) to cable modem.

    I imagine the box on the outside contains a splitter of some sort.

    I want to connect the Starview to the cable in the bedroom that currently connects to the cable modem but want to keep the broadband functionality there. I had a look in the white box in the bedroom and it contains a TV/Data isolator (1 input, 1 output), one of these: http://www.technetix.co.uk/product.asp?id=23&pid=1207&sid=34

    Question is, do I replace this with an isolator that has 2 outputs such as this: http://www.technetix.co.uk/product.asp?id=23&pid=1214&sid=34

    Or do I need a splitter that connects to the cable attached to the existing isolator, such as this: http://www.technetix.co.uk/product.asp?id=24&pid=1175&sid=35

    I'm not really sure what the difference is between them. Do I add splitter before or after the isolator?

    Any help appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Can anyone who has cable tv and broadband via a separate modem in the same room let me know how it is setup? Basically, how and where it is split.

    Thanks.
