Summary: Monster Splitter - Abracadabra! It Worked!
Comment: I am normally a bit cynical about the performance claims of companies like Monster Cable. I'm an engineer, I want to understand exactly what is happening and the slightly fuzzy, "oogy-boogy" nature of some of these claims makes me scoff.

BUT...I am amazed at what this little thing did for me!

I spent a good 5 hours on phone calls with my FiOS service provider trying to figure out why my super high speed internet connection was intermittently stopping and going super slow and then hitting its speed limit. My family was getting pretty irate. (It's funny how totally dependent we have become on the internet.) I hate electronic problems that are not repeatable. They are nearly unsolvable. The very helpful customer service reps led me through several attempts to fix the problem. After thinking it was fixed a couple times, the problem reappeared. The last rep (logically) concluded that the only component that could be flakey was the wireless router and he sent me a new one. Didn't fix it.

I was getting extremely frustrated. I figured there had to be some very slight fault in the cables that wasn't bad enough to cut off the signal, but bad enough to interfere with it. So I swallowed my skepticism and decided to try replacing the standard quality splitter that the FiOS company installed with one of these Monster 2-way splitters, because that was the simplest first step.

Well, blow me down! The problem is gone. I have my screaming fast internet back, and everybody is happy!

I guess there really is a meaningful quality difference! Monster, I believe!!

Summary: Eh.
Comment: I got this to replace the standard rusted-out splitter that Comcast had installed in my home years ago to reduce any kind of loss and improve picture quality. While it seems to be working fine, I haven't noticed any improvement over the old rusted one.
