Multi room setup help

I have Sky + down stairs and pay for multi room, a standard box, upstairs. I have just got hold of another Sky + box and want to set it up to use upstairs in place of the standard box. Any ideas on how to do this.
(please make it simple)

Hi,
Run a another cable from the LNB to the rceiver upstairs, so that it has the two feeds that it needs.

Ring Sky and get the Sky+ facility activated on the second box.

I think that's all there is to do.

It is virtually guaranteed that he has a quad LNB already as he already has a Sky+ box and a third tuner. You can't get triple LNBs.
