How to connect all rooms with DishNetwork?

Hi, I need to connect all four rooms to DishNetwork. All the rooms have cable outlets with local cable. If I supply one of the outlet with DishNetwork, with a spliter for example, will all other rooms be connected?


If not, is there a hub of some kind somewhere in my attic where the local cable line enters the house, and I can do the hook up there?


Thanks.|||What you need to do is buy a splitter. Then you run the the cabling from your dish into the inputs of the splitter. Then find the cables that go to your cable outlets and plug them into the output of your splitter.





Then, as long as each TV has it's own receiver you should be good to go. Run the cable from your cable outlet to your sat box.





weeder|||you can but the problem is that when you change the channel on one tv the all change|||According to Dish customer service, their tuners (most of them anyway) support two rooms, but it won't work like cable, where all rooms are "hot" just because they have an active cable hookup. Each tuner needs to be connected to a specific TV.





The articles below cover what you are trying to do, and the limitations involved. Dish will do a standard install for four rooms as part of their service, and that my well be the best route with the fewest headaches.





Good luck.|||You can't use a regular splitter for satellite - it will cause you to lose quite a few of your channels. You'll need what's called a multi switch http://www.smarthome.com/7792.html. This will split your signal for up to four separate receivers. Also you'll probably need a spool of RG6 coaxial cable and F-pin connectors.
