    is this possible?

    Hello all,

    I was recently asked if it was possible to watch your home satellite channels remotely from your office. My response was "I have no idea", not a clue, hopefully you guys/girls can help.

    In this case the satellite is connected to the home router and apparently has an IP address. I know it is possible to remotely access your actual desktop PC but can you access the satellite channels you get at home from the office PC?

    Thanks

    no, how else do you expect this to be done? The Sky box has no ability to do it.

    i don't know, hence why i asked on a forum, i thought that was clear.

    no, why do you say that? I am trying to help you with the very limited amount of info you have given me.

    What you are saying is that your friend has something that allows him to get satellite and you want to know if this something can broadcast the channels over the net.

    What is it he uses to receive the broadcast?

    I still think no matter what he uses its still going to be that it can't do it without extra hardware.
