Default Sky in 2nd room

Currently we have Sky tv in the living room, looking to link it up to the bedroom,dont really want to pay extra for Sky 'multi room'
Running cables would be a bit of a nightmare as the living room is in the front of the house,bedroom in the back
Are there any wireless devices out there that people are using that work well?

most of the wireless ones will give a watchable picture for the odd show, provided you line them up ok and don;t have a huge distance and lots of thick walls between them. I hooked up one for the mother in law.

You won't get HD pictures in the second room, but if you only want to watch the odd show and aren't picky about a 1080p 3d 56inch picture, then they should be ok.

Only way is to try one and if it's no good take it back.

We have an amplifier box that allows us to get Sky round the house.

We use the magic eyes and it works really well
