Hmm, ok on that note, what's the 1 Ghz for the splitter refer to-or the
4/0db unbalanced thing? I've got TW Cable at home and have it split 4 ways
(this is after it's split once to the bedroom and living room from the
junction box at the back of the apt) but the cable techs have tested the
signal strength and said it's actually still moderately high-even after the
4-way split-so I should be good...
I've just got a simple 4-way splitter and if there's a better one I can get
(or an amplifier or something else that can clean/improve the signal) I'd
definitely consider it! I just upgraded my TivoHD to a 1GB HD and I'm
getting occasional drops and I'm thinking it's the signal now (I thought it
was the hard drive before, but it's still happening even after I replaced
the hard drive, so now it's pointing to something else) so rather than have
the techs come out again and say it's fine, I was wondering on what I could
do myself.
Anyone got any pointers on what to look for or where?

Yes, 1GHz and it also might have to be an unbalanced 4/0db if signal is
weak.
