When I connect my tv via network cable to the computer modem, why is there a decrease in picture quality?
I have a Sony Bravia tv with a network cable port.
When I connect the tv to the computer modem, everything works fine, but the picture quality decreases dramatically from tru hd 1080 (from the source) to approx 300-400 displayed on the tv.
What can be done to remedy this?
Thanks to all in advance.
You come off the cable coming from the street to a good quality 2-port splitter. Modem goes on one port, any TVs go on the other port (via another splitter if you have more than one - DO NOT use a single multi-port splitter). If you don’t get enough TV signal that way, call your cable company - they have to feed you more signal.
