    Which splitter should I use?

    Going to put a splitter in my bedroom and hope everything turns out okay.

    Code:
                                  > Internet 
    Cable Line > Splitter >
                                  > Cable Television
    Signals already boosted.

    Which splitter should I use? The one I bought a few months ago:

    Or the one the technician accidentally left behind. :D

    Yeah, I have no clue about cable stuff, but uh... 2300 > 1000!

    Also wtf Lawrenceville...did you work at EBGames there? lol I met a guy there that played FFXI back when I first bought it. Don't chew on your fingernails, bad habits!

    Go with the one you purchased.

    The one the tech left behind might work but it will suck.
    You want 2 way capable splitters for cable if you want to be able to do PPV/EOD and not lose any connectivity on your HSI.


    Edit: Also with an open end your gonna either create a problem with Ingress/Egress and CLI Leakage.

    Bleh, alright. I thought I hit the jackpot finding a nice new shinny splitter laying in the grass today. I said to myself, "Oh look, the nice technician man must have left me a present".

    Nope, I just moved here March 1st but I've been in just about all the EB's in Gwinnett. XD

    I can go for weeks trying not to bite my nails but I usually end up unconsciously doing it. :/

    Thanks for the help guys. Setting it up now. d('-'d)

    If only >.>

    An engineer wouldn't be carrying that for his own use, it'll be something company issued for customers who require the unit, therefore the cheapest available most likely.
