I just got a new modem from Comcast strictly for Wi-Fi and the house I'm currently staying in runs on DirectTV but has virtually no internet. The only available coax cables outlet plugged into a DirectTV box. Is it possible to use a splitter and connect the box and modem to it so it can share the outlet???

the cable box should also have a coax ouf

But the box is connected to the outlet. I'm wondering if I can just reconnect it to a coax splitter and connect the modem next to it so the splitter itself can be plugged into the outlet (thus sharing the outlet)

How the hell do you have DirectTV for TV and Comcast for internet? Presumably the cable goes up to the dish.

Find the wire that your cable company plugs into. Plug your modem onto that one. Disconnect it rom directv

its easy. I have 1 line coming in from compost cable for my internet and have 1 jack set up for the modem alone. then I have the house wired with RG6 for dish networks hoppers, joeys etc. here in seattle the tv signal from compost is like 460 and if your lucky you get a 720p channel. at least their internet beats DSL.

Glad I'm not the only one that recognizes the view. If only it wasn't so damn expensive to live there I might move back.
