Re: Cable TV on my PC Had a similar situation to yours recently. Leave your modem a straight run if you can. If you split your cable box line before the filter and go to the pc, you will probably get all the bonus cable channels. Here they were all on channels less than 100 anyway. I had the problem with the cable reception on the pc as well. I was using the pc to capture children's shows and then making dvd's. Some of it is software related. Update your tuner card software/drivers or try other software compatable with your card. The way I solved all my problems was to go to direct tv with dsl. The pc tv reception was a 10 compared to a 2 with cable and the dsl is understandably a little slower, but most people really can't tell the difference. The tv reception in the rest of the house is also much, much, much improved. All this for less money a month. Lot's to ponder, Good luck |
