Can I Buy A Second Remote For My Stream Box?

As per the header, can I buy a second remote control for my Stream box?

I'm disabled, so generally like to have one at my workstation as well, thanks.

  • Unfortunately, you're right, Morgoth – you can only have one remote paired to each Stream puck because of the bluetooth limitation. My partner and I had one each for our old V6 box, which led to far fewer arguments (and far less hunting down the back of the sofa too).

  • Hi Morgoth,

    I’ve seen them for sale on a certain online shopping site starting from £10 if that helps, think ‘?Bay’

  • I was really wondering if you can have two remotes connected to the Stream box, since other Virgin boxes say they can't (360, etc) ... A Bluetooth limitation?

  • Thanks iXNine, I thought that was the case having read it within the other forums,
    but didn't see a ref within the Stream forum? Cheers!
