Re: [Connectivity] Sharing drop with neighbor said by sapreaper:...What happens when the neighbor dumps his connection? Message received. Good point.
I'll see if we can steer the contractor towards running a drop to my apartment tomorrow when the resked shows up.

| The problem you run into is when you split a cable signal is you weaken the signal after every split. This in turn effects every service you have especially internet and/or voice which should come off the first split to maximize the upstream and downstream signals. |

| The bottom line is the tech needs to do his job, contractor or not. No the tech can't turn the signal up at the pole, it's not possible. If there are two power meters from two drops from the pole then there need to be two drops for cable service from the pole, enough said. |
