said by J E F F4:Getting issues on some of my channels.
My setup:
Cable in to two-way splitter, one splits to Home Phone, one splits to 5 way booster-splitter, 3 goes off into cable land, 1 goes of into the land of the internets (invented by Al Gore). 1 Free. (I have VIP).
Channel most likely affected is Channel 16, for example, the weather channel..and channel 5 too, quick a bit (Well, view CBC isn't a priority for me anyway)..all my HD comes in perfect, except with those channels I listed, plus a couple others. It seems to happen on the channels below 90.
Anyone else have this issue? This has been ongoing for some time...just haven't had the time to call them...(they rewired from outside of house to pole...maybe that was faulty)
Did you install the splitter yourself? Or rogers supplied? Often in many cases amplifiers are installed unnecessarily when there are other problems, hoping that they will fix the issue, when in fact they do nothing or exasperate the issue.
The other thing it could be is the box. What type is it? 8642, 4642, 4250, 3250, 8300? If it's a cisco (8642/4642) much less likely the box but still possible.
You can swap out at a rogers plus store, knowing that if it's a pvr you can't keep your recordings unless you save to external device.
