The PC wiring by the way is through the TV.

Thanks rolfw for the reply! Well let's say the cable would be provided to 7 seperate rooms and each would be viewing something different. While the cable can with stand about 200 channels. I saw something simliar to what I would like to have in one of the hotels in the UAE, it had a system...

What is the best way to create one’s own cable TV system that would include all the channels that one wants instead of needing to purchase a million receivers / multiple subscriptions for each room and provide the necessary wiring? Sort of like what you would find in hotels today?

Success! My reciever and card are both finally working! The signal was sent today on the last day of my vacation sadly, but at least I can finally watch my channels! Thank you all for your support!

Sadly I paid him directly through money order. I think coincidently we bought both or Sky boxes from the same Italian seller by the way.

Thanks Ralph, will fight on till I get what I paid for!

Hey guys! Just wished to update you with my Sky Italia dilemma, I emailed my provider an email last Friday morning telling him that if he does not activate my card I along with my friends shall place negative reviews of him on Ebay. Within hours he responded claiming he was away at another...

Thank you all for the advice! I will persue him harder and let you know how it goes. I guess I have no other option.

I thought that was mentioned in my first post :) Anyways my apologies.

I did keep the reciever on on channel 109 for almost two weeks now.

I bought it from an Italian guy who's selling loads of those recievers and cards on ebay.co.uk. I really don't understand this, he sent the reciever and the card what does it take to activate the card? Just a phone call???

In Italy!!

So, there is no way to go around this without contacting the supplier? I just lost hope of him answering my calls and emails, for a reason uknown.

Thanks for the reply, yes I can see the number of the card displayed on the pay-tv channels like Ch. 109 and Fox Retro etc... The screen is showing the card's number and an STB_ID number, the second I have no clue what it means.

Hi guys! This is my first post in this forum. I live in Bahrain and had bought through an online provider a Sky Italia box HD and an official card. I thought the provider had activated the card before shipping it, but ever since I had installed it 2 weeks ago the card has not been activated...
