i have the nthell cable feed coming into my place, the installation guy fitted a 2-way splitter to connect my modem to this. now i want to connect another cable box to the original feed to connect a different room. would i be better swapping the 2-way for a 3-way splitter, and what would you recommend, or could i just use another 2-way splitter from the connection going to the cable box to connect the second box ?? any help would be greatly appreciated.

with so many splitters the signal is gettin weaker and weaker u will not get all channels when scanning through the spliters, t be honest u should get another n*l point in the other room so u will have 100% signal, that what i done last wk now i have perfect viewing

No probs re split, I have it split all ways lol

so long as the connection is good, the split, that is and if a prob, like the other member says, use a booster

And hey, I love the Dark Side of the Moon too lol

Hi all, I also need help re-splitting. I have it split twice before it hits the first box and the signal is perfect. However, the second box is the problem. It wont unscramble any channels below 400.000. The signal and the quality are around 70-90%. Any ideas anyone? By the way - Great site, great instructions, all around great job!
