thanks guys, david you nailed it right off the bat. i found an incredibly cheap pc cable website and got a wireless logitech mouse on sale for 15$! at a staples. 35 ft run to downstairs tv and now i can watch interent on tv and the heck with exp. cable packages! even got a wireless mouse for my pc monitor, i am now in the 20th century at least. ha.

If you have an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch, you can use an app called Mobile Mouse which allows you to use an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch like a remote trackpad and keyboard to control your PC or Mac through WiFi connection. You can even define special keys to control particular programs like iTunes and web browser.

Mobile Mouse costs $2.99 download from Apple App store. You also need to download and install a free server software for each PC and Mac you want to control.

It works very well. Highly recommended.

How far is the tv from the pc? This is what I did 75 foot away I ran high quality vga cable for the video and usb extender it extends the USB device up to 150 feet using cat 5 or 6 cable go to this site it will explain .http://www.vpi.us/usbc5.html with this usb extender you can hook it in to a usb dac to run your audio and with a usb splitter run logitec air mouse or similar.plug the usb receiver into the usb splitter in the same room as your tv and You will have full control of your pc from your tv monitor You also can go with a hdmi cable to run your video and audio anything over 15' you need a extender but hdmi cable is limited to range and gets expensive for a extender. then use usb extender to run the mouse.

I'm guessing you have a way to get cabling from the room the PC is in to the room the TV monitor is in, as you must have a cable running from the PC to the monitor. As long as that's the case, get a USB wireless mouse and run a USB extension cable from the PC so you can place the mouse's USB receiver in the room with the monitor. If the distance is longer than 5 meters you'll need a hub or powered USB extender.
