Baldman looking for help

[Baldmechanic]

Hi Guys thank you for letting me into your forums, as you can see i am new here so please be gentle with me , ok let's see if you can help me with this little teaser, ok i have had sky for 9 years now and i use a 8 way lnb and two sky digi boxes one downstairs and one upstairs and a magic eye on the upstairs box, But last week i took advantage of the sky offers and was the proud owner of a brand new sky plus box and multiroom subscription.The sky plus box is fitted upstairs and they also changed my downstairs box for a new thompson model and issued me with another card, ok this is the question i have just purchased another sky+ box and i have fitted it downstairs myself(yes dual cables from lnb and rf2 outlet set to on) do i have to ring sky to get it set up? (ie changing boxes) and could the magic eye run from another seperate bedroom and control the sky+ downstairs inc recording and using planner? any help would be appreciated, and thank you for taking the time to look at my little dilema

If you have a spare card, you will need to ring Sky to get it paired. You would also need to pay another £10 multiroom, if you want to watch all the channels on it.

Looks like it's just a call to Sky to pair the card to the box.

Contacted sky today and they are having problems thier end, and said they would get back to me within 48hrs, will let you know what happens, if it is true, that i have to pay another £10 on top of the £10 extra i am currently paying for multiroom then sky can take a run and jump lol, may as well gone the full hog and had HD

Multiroom is £10 per STB not per household.

Ok guys all sorted now, the card would not pair up to the box because it was a faulty card, new card fitted and sky+ working upstairs, and sky+ working downstairs and also Magic eye working in spare room, so all fixed and working and at no extra cost, so only paying for multiroom which is £10 per month extra , ty for your help

I think you caused confusion by saying you had installed 3 Digiboxes, not 2.
