Re: amount of tvs plugged in effect cable modem bandwidth?
[ QUOTE ]
It has to do with the # of splitters before the 1 going to the wireless router. Sounds like your landlord is trying to feed the building off one account. A former cable cop. [/ QUOTE ] Given that she does not need to split more than one time before going to the cable modem she most likely didn't. She would simply keep splitting the cable TV end of the connection. He could find that out for sure if he really wanted.

Re: amount of tvs plugged in effect cable modem bandwidth?
[ QUOTE ]
i pay $600/mo for a room, utilities, cable, and internet. and up until last week it was only 5 people in the house. Two on the top floor where i live, which has 2 bathrooms and a kitchen . id move out, but im leaving new york aug. 1, so its not really worth the hassle. [/ QUOTE ] You may be able to convince her to get a DSL connection instead and have half the rooms use it that you effectively have the bandwidth you did before. I doubt she would be willing to get another cable modem though. There's too much $$ risk for her on that road currently.

Even if it is only split it can still be Effed UP. A landlord cheating the cable co does not tend to get it right. [/ QUOTE ] Sure, it could be. Depending on his speed degredation though it is much more likely that it is simply the influx in users...

Re: amount of tvs plugged in effect cable modem bandwidth?
ill check tomorrow to see if she has it directly plugged in. since we have a bunch of splitters your assumption is probably correct, and its not split correctly.

Re: amount of tvs plugged in effect cable modem bandwidth?
My point is people that know nothing about cable tend to make mistakes.
I remember the time I went to a $750,000 house and it loop wired! 1 wire to the 1st box behind the wallplate.Another wire feeding out of that box leading to the 2nd box.And so on 6 times.. I hope they shot the contractor! [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
