Would it work if the cable comes out of the wall, then into the cable company's box, then into the tv?

We use it to control the TV that is connected to a digital antenna. It works fine for that. Not sure if it would work in your set up. If you currently change channels by adjusting the TV -- not the cable box -- then it would probably work. If you have to adjust the cable box to change channels then it might not work. The product page on amazon says: "- Note: The Tek Pal Remote will work if the cable is directly connected into the TV."

This remote is designed to power on/off all brands of TV's, control volume, change channels. I do not believe it will work any cable boxes. So Yes it will still work your TV no mater where your cable comes from but you will need a separate remote to work your cable box.

I'm sorry but that will not work. The cable box would have it's own separate remote, and the remote you are looking at buying is only intended to be programmed for one device (I.e. TV only, NOT tv and cable box). So it would really only work with an antenna or direct-line cable (a cable that goes from wall directly to TV with no box in between) that you would normally change the channels with only the TV remote.

The device is not a universal remote. It is only capable of controlling the TV. In this scenario, I'm not sure how well it would work. If you have a cable or satellite box, you would still need to use the remote for that box.

Probably not. I tried to do the same exact thing and the cable did not work. The company sent me a refund.

As long as there is a cable box hooked up to your provider, it will work. The sending unit hooks into the back of the cable box and the receiver to the TV. If you wish to make a channel change you have to see that a signal can reach the sending unit at the cable box.

If you have a cable box that is HDMI you can connect it to that. It have an HDMI In/Out

So you want to split one in to 2 outs?, yes you can. I have a cable box connected to 2 TVs and works fine

As long as the TVs and receiver have the appropriate input / outputs this should work for that purpose

If it has a coaxial antenna input ( in ) on the the cable box I would say yes.

Yes, if your TV has optical or coax out, you can run cable from coax or optical out from TV to coax or optical in of this receiver.

I don't see why not the way you hook it up is between the cable box and the dvd/ vhs box.

That isnt the setup i have but based on my unserstanding of how the unit works, it should work. I have cable but no box and i ran the cable into the dvr so i would think that if you run a line out of the antenna into the dvr, it should work..

Yes. However if you have large fingers screwing on the cable is difficult. I solved this by screwing a push on connector on the existing cable from the wall, works great.

It operates through the cable that connect to the box that is connected to the tv.

It depends on how far away the tv is from the wall itself ... I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work... It seriously is cheap easy and perfect for the job

Yes but the IR transmitters cannot be individually removed so you will have a bunch of extra cables hanging around. Depending on how close to the wall your TV is, it should work fine. Also some people have had problems with Plasma TV interference. I have an LED.

I wouldn't see why it wouldn't work, if the tv supports an Ethernet port, it will work

I bought this so I could hook 2 tvs into one dish box and it didn't work. 1 tv would have a decent picture, the other (on the same channel) was all fuzzy. I can't say for sure that it would work, but since your not splitting the signal, it should.

Hi Geraldine, Yes it should work with your Cable Box providing it has a HDMI input which most Cable Boxes these days do. I would find it very surprising if it didn't have a HDMI outlet. If for some reason it doesn't we will refund your purchase 100% with no questions asked. I hope I answered your question. Thank you.
