I was going to replace a cheapie Radio Shack amplifier and several splitters with this one splitter/amplifier. Well, the reception as worse that the original configuration. I ended up returning to the original setup. In that application I was hoping to use it just didn't work. I would thick twice before purchasing one.

Channel Vision Coaxial Tap Splitter - 6DB Line Tap - 2 Way Review

I bought this tap to replace a 9dB PDI "Mega Tap".
Unfortunately with this splitter installed the SNR on my cable modem, installed on the -6dB leg, swings wildly by at least 4dB (38 to 34). Before with the PDI tap the SNR was very stable and higher (38.8 to 39). A back and forth comparison today confirmed these results.
I think the advertised attenuation values are pretty close. I was at about 8dBmV with the -6 tap and now 5dBmV back on the PDI tap.

RF AMPLIFER BI-DIRECT Review

This amp helped my tv reception and made my modem work faster. The TV stopped pix elating on the weaker TV channels. It also increased the power levels for the modem so the noise to power ratio levels were better and it didn't drop the internet any more.
I am running 6 Comcast cable on demand boxes, and one cable modem (a SB5100 modem)
I am happy with this product and will be buying another one to help one of my friends system out.

4-Port Bi-Directional Cable TV Splitter Signal Booster/Amplifier with Active Return Zero Signal Loss and VoIP Telephone Bypass Feature Review

I had some major cable signal issues throughout my house, and despite a new ground line, splitting the main drop without an amplifier would make it impossible for some of our outlets to receive the signal they needed. I had a early-2000s era Radio Shack amplifier, but it wasn't really intended to be used in conjunction with a cable modem. I had to find a better option, but I didn't want to spend $$$ on some of the active return amplifiers being offered.
After some research I settled on this PCT model, since it was lossless, compatible with modems, and didn't introduce any extra noise. Installation was fairly simple and having a power adapter that uses a coax cable made it easy for me to get the right size. I didn't opt to use the Bypass Feature, but it's nice to know it's there. After installing, I noticed marked improvements in signal level, SNR, and upstream power. Does this translate to better, faster, internet? No, but it's certainly more stable, and now all outlets in my house are capable of transmitting digital signals now that Comcast has turned off analog signals.
Running solid for a month with no issues, and the 5-year warranty will ensure my happiness for some time (just make sure to buy from a qualified vendor).

After experiencing pixels on my HD TiVo via Verizon FioS, I got a combination of 6 and 10 db attenuators from Smarthome.
At first i went with two 6db, but then had to go to a combination of 16db. So far so good, and Smarthome was great with emailing me shipping news.

Motorola Signal Booster 484095-001-00 Bi-Directional RF Amplifier Review

Ever since my cable company installed digital cable in my house I have had picture problems. The analog pictures were grainy and half of the digital pictures didn't come in. They just said they would arrive shortly but never did. Numerous calls to the cable company failed to come up with a permanent fix. So I decided to take matters in my own hands. Other boosters made things worse. When I saw that this one worked with digital as well as analog I decided to give it a try. I first hooked it up from the cable box to the vcr and got no improvement. So I tried hooking it up where the signal first came in before the cable reciever and it worked beautifully. Analog pictures are clearer than ever and all the digital pictures come in. No more "Please Wait" screens. I am mad that my stupid cable company refused to do this but I am thrilled to finally have what I pay for! Great product!
