BTW: My modem was out of sync for several hours. I wanted to get online
so I was going to move it to the other room where it works. I screwed
in a 3 foot piece of cable into the wall outlet, went back to get the
modem and ...yes you guessed it, it was synched. Why would a three foot
stub of cable screwed into another outlet allow the modem to synch? I
checked the numbers and they were better than the ones I previously
posted but still too high up and too low down.

You may want to terminate any unused legs off your splitter.


Do you know a good source for those terminators? I get blank stares
when I ask...
