i ran this test from myt moms computer, she has comcast with a newer modem and hers is split 6 times. Basic comcast subscription. :::.. testmy.net test results ..::: Download Connection is:: 76802 Kbps about 76.8 Mbps (tested with 12160 kB) Download Speed is:: 9375 kB/s Upload Connection is:: 366 Kbps about 0.37 Mbps (tested with 748 kB) Upload Speed is:: 45 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net (Server 1) Test Time:: 2006/07/23 - 6:39pm D-Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-FPVJ1RKH3 U-Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-VOXBQLAJN User Agent:: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) [!]

I understand how splitters can slow down internet a little, but here is the deal I ran this setup without problems for about 1.5years. It just doesn't add up to have a problem now. I wish I could run a separate unsplit line into the house from the original source like stated but it is a two story house and has almost zero attic space. i am willing to sacrifice speed from splitting the signal, but I should be able to connect to the net regardless if I had 12 TV's, thats why i pay for both internet, and cable T.V Thanks alot guys!!

this is what the speed tested at. :::.. testmy.net test results ..::: Download Connection is:: 4768 Kbps about 4.77 Mbps (tested with 5983 kB) Download Speed is:: 582 kB/s Upload Connection is:: 371 Kbps about 0.37 Mbps (tested with 748 kB) Upload Speed is:: 45 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net (Server 1) Test Time:: 2006/07/22 - 6:41pm D-Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-L58MXPBJ4 U-Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-24R97WCFI User Agent:: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060508 Firefox/1.5.0.4 [!]

My modem will sometimes not allow me to use the net, but if it is unplugged and plugfged in sometimes that will allow you to get back on. Other times unplugging does not work and I have to go into my computers network connections and perform a network repair. This will work until it happens again. The Comcast guy said it is because I have the signal split to 3 TVs in the house. This sounds like bullshit. I pay for high-speed and cable I should be able to use both regardless if all my TVs are on and the computer flawless. Is he blowing smoke up my ass or what? Thanks in advance!!
