    Hi

    When UPC upped their prices "again" I rang to enquire about adding your TV to my EFibre package. In the course of conversation with your rep. we discussed cabling. I was told that the modem had to be near the TV as they had to be wired. As our modem is in the hall and TV in living room the "War dept." decided she didn't want more cabling put in, so, we didn't bother going ahead.
    I was speaking to someone the other day who has your TV package and they said that it was wireless.
    Would you please advise what cabling, if any, is required from Modem to TV

    Thanks

    Hi Gobethewall



    The modem and evision box can be at a distance of 30Ft from the modem and is usually wired via cable run along skirting board in a visibly discreet fashion - in come cases power adapter home plugs are used to transmit the signal instead but that can't be guaranteed so we would always advise a wired connection unless changed at last minute by the installation engineer.


    Thanks

    Hi Al

    Thanks for reply.
    Just to confirm. The Modem connects to EVision box by cable, yes? Where is Evision box put?
    I assume it would normally go beside television, which would mean cabling through a wall in my case.
    How then is the box connected to the television? Is this HDMI or wireless?

    Hi Gobethewall

    The evision is put in to the area of your choice (usually under or beside the main TV) and the evision box is connected to the TV via HDMI cable.

    Thanks
