Re: [PLUG] OT: high speed internet connection

[Stephen Tolton <steve@alterzone.net>]

In my experience if you do a two-way split on the cable where it  
comes into the house and send one half of that split to the modem and  
then the other half to another splitter, you are fine.  The remaining  
splits won't affect your cable modem connection, just your TV  
signal.  That's actually how the Comcast techs install the service.

You will probably have more problems with TV quality with six splits  
than with cable internet speeds.
