I have about 3 splitters (on 3 floors) connecting to 6 TVs (2 Digital boxes, 4 Coax Analogue) and x2 12db Amplifier's (1 in the basement where the cable comes from , and 1 on the 3rd floor)

all my Video On Demand (VOD) channels do not work (said loading failed) cable company said everything is fine on their end and they would send a technician ..

I believe its my crap $20 radio shack booster .....

1. VOD channels do not work
2. Bedroom TV seem's abit grainy/snowy

Help!! would removing the 2nd amp and replaicng 1st amp with a stronger amp fix this??

links/pm me Which Signal booster works with cable modems, PPV and VOD boxes

THXS IN ADVANCEEEEE

Perhaps your amplifier is not a two-way amplifier. VOD requires that a return signal goes the other way, back to the cable company

This specifically states supports VOD services and cable modems .......................

But since i have 2 amps 12db and a 10db would this 15db at the very 1st split be sufficient??

You have two threads and will get the same answers. Can you delete/close one?

I have the Motorola and use it for an indoor antenna amplifier.....so I cant speak to its 2 way ability. It has nice specs though....seems you are on the right track.
