MessageAwaiting the results of that distance check!!!
Also any ways of possibly boosting the signal to make it go along a
longer
distance of cat5?
Nice one!

If you look at the pictures showing how I have constructed it
http://www.jstarkie.co.uk/ go to
the automation page then controling pc.

I have put the electronics in a 9 way to RJ45 enclosure, that way the
IR
part can plug into a cat 5 outlet (in line of sight of IR remote) and
the
other end will go to a cat 5 outlet and then with a patch lead into your
PC,
the PC may be in another room. I have not done any testing on the
distance
yet but hope to make up a huge extension for test purposes shortly.

If you want any further info let me know
