[cfgeeks] Anyone have BrightHouse in the Altamonte Springs area - 436/434 intersection...

[Kevin Inscoe]

Physically the connectors. Like Shawn was saying I have had problems
with right angles and splitters before. Removing them fixed the
problem. Also some kinds of cables you get from the store had bad
crimps. I have had that problem also. I have also had to have BH come
out snip the old connectors and make new connections. I have been in
the house 11 years now. Stuff get oxidized and worn out from weather.
I had a really strange pixilation problem (tv side) that just
magically went away when I removed a right end.
