    Twin LNB split into 3 rooms

    Hi,

    After recent refubrishment of the house, I have 2 wires from Twin LNB coming into the cubbord where I have another 2 wires from each 3 rooms (6 wires total).

    How to connect all up so I could connect sky box in each room? I know that I should use OctoLNB but is too late now as it will be very hard to run more wires.

    A twin port LNB, is essentially two separate LNBs. You cannot share an LNB between receivers.

    Your best option is to install a multi switch in your cupboard. Run two mor cabels from dish. Maybe another for Terrestrial. Replace LNB with a Quattro LNB. Not to be confused with quad LNB. All rooms will be independent then.
