| but you're going to get a split signal... so if ur tv is ever on then instead of getting say the advertised speed of 1mb (just an example) ull get speeds of around 512k

| Whatever company sets up your cable internet, probably will do the splitter for you. When I got cable in my house, they ran a splitter from the box and put in the line for me. All I had to do was twist on the cable to the wireless modem and go.
