| reply to wannabetech Re: Internet through Shaw going through Amp
Usually an amp is a last effort. If the signal is bad it usual means something else like a degraded drop that cant be replaced right away, or maybe you have so many outlets in your house that the needed signal is not enough (rather then increasing the signal outside and messing things up for a lot of people they just give you an amp)
There are lots of reason to give you an amp and not to, depends on the situation. On a side not IF you do get fuzzy channels again or the internet drops out the amp probably died (it happens) if this does happen bypass the amp until Shaw can come out and replace it, but unplug it first or you could get a good shock. |
