Pardon me if I sound more technically competent than I am! Your responses lead me to ask some more questions:
1) I think the patch panels work to convert the IR signals over IP and then back out again at the other end. Certainly the Sky remotes work fine. If I go this way, what does the computer need to be able to receive and understand that signal?
2) wifi via iOS sounds interesting (but not for my parents!). Is there a guide to how to open a port etc?
3) what about if I want to browse the web or use then computer for something other than XBMC?
Thanks again
