If your cable company has decent signal strength, which most do, you should
easily be able to split the signal at your computer based on how little else
is hooked up in your house.

Hi,

I'd like to know what problems to expect if i try to split my cable

internet
line right before the modem to accomodate a new TV tuner card.

My line looks like this:

CATV Jack - Cable Company Installed Splitter:
Splitter output 1 goes to my TV in the living room (which I will split to
reconnect the upstarirs TV in the master bedroom.
Splitter Output 2 goes on a long journey to my room to my modem. I'd like

to
split this line just before the modem and have:
Splitter 2 - Output 1 to Modem, Output 2 to Tuner.

What can I do to keep signal strength up?

I also plan to install a switch to run my internet to a second computer.

Thanks,
Jesse
