Sounds to me like it's over driven. Need to reduce the signal coming to the DVR. Having to much signal is just as bad as not having enough. This will cause the SNR to be to close and cause issues that you are speaking of.

Bi-directional amp (2-way amp) not a good idea if you are having INGRESS or SNR problems. This type of amp will only increase the problem and it may cause problems for your neighbors. It can also effect the NODE and then when a truck rolls and they find out what is adding to the problems (like modems dropping out etc.) could be quite a service call bill due to customer (subcriber) induced problems. OVER AMPLIFICATION IS JUST AS BAD AS WEAK SIGNAL....

We get bad splitters NEW right out of the box every day. If the splitters you had came from Comcast were they brand new or had they been laying around in the basement for awhile unwraped from it original wrapping it could have drawn moisture, have some internal corrosion etc.
And by the way even the best installers can accidently leave one little piece of braid wraped around the stinger and cause all kinds of problems.....
