Hey guys

Had a look but couldn't see if this had been asked before. Apologies if it has, any help much appreciated!

Currently rearranging my lounge and have found my Sky aerial (F type) cable is too short. Went down to Dick Smith and grabbed a longer cable, along with one of their connection points (to accept male cable entry from both ends).

Plugged it all in, everything ran perfect, great picture etc. Until I decided I might watch the Kiwis game this morning... where upon I found I couldn't pick up my Sky Sport channels at all! Every other channel I'm subscribed to worked fine, just not Sky Sport. Plugged it back into my old cable with no extension and Sky Sport came back online.

Called Sky, they didnt want a bar of it (no surprises there). Said they wouldn't reset my connection and I would just have to live with it. Yet another time i've raged against their monopoly! The Sky box I have is a MySky HDI.

Anyway, sorry for the rambling, but has anyone else had this problem? Any fixes for it? And if a reset would work, how do I do this, and will I lose my recorded content?

As I said, any helpful tips will be more than appreciated!
