Re: ATT Cable Modem + 'Basic' Cable ? Techs Please

I'm talking about the filter they put up on the pole to block extented cable. Not the filter that is on the splitter that stops interference.

Actually the Cable TV signal and the internet signal are the same. All that is needed is to subscribe to internet service and a cable ready TV and you get most standard channels. A filter is needed on the splits going to TV's, but that is all.

They said the filter that gives the Very Basic 13 channel or so cable, messes with the cable modem, so they just take it off.
