 Worked great for my cable modem problems April 21, 2005

I split my coax cable to go to my cable modem and a TV tuner card. It worked o.k. for about a month. Then all of a sudden my cable modem lost the signal (I guess more people in my neighborhood signed up). The only way I could get the signal back was to remove the splitter, which meant no more TV on my PC. With very little optimism, I figured I'd take a chance on the signal booster. I couldn't hook it up anywhere near the demarc point as the manual suggests due to logistical problems, so I doubted it would work. I hooked it up between the wall socket and the splitter and, voila!, problem solved. Now not only is my cable modem signal solid, but channels that were once fuzzy on my TV tuner are nice and clear.
I didn't think this would work because I was hooking it up so far from the demarc point, but it worked like a charm.
As a hoot, I tried disconnecting it once to see if my signal would die again, and sure enough, my cable modem stopped getting a signal. Kudos to Motorla on a fine product.

before I installed the unit my cable tv signal was fuzzy on all of our 5 televisions. Our cable internet was also having trouble loosing sync with our internet provider. It was very frustrating. I installed the signal amplifier right before the first splitter and it works perfectly. Cable internet speeds are around 1.4MB, blazing. All of the televisions are crystal clear also. It seems to be powerful enough for the televisions and the internet for me. Great product.
The best $40 I've ever spent! February 1, 2005

I recently purchased a new Toshiba DLP HDTV. The picture right out of the box was fantastic on HD channels, great on digital channels, but only so so on some of the analog channels. I hooked up a splitter to feed part of the cable signal to the cable box and the other part directly to the TV and that helped for the analog channels. Then I read about the Motorola Signal Booster and decided to give it a try. What a difference! Digital channels are near HD quality and SD channels look a lot clearer and the colors are better. It's the best $40 I've ever spent! I was so happy with the booster I purchased another one to use in my computer room. A couple of the lower channels on the TV in there had always been fuzzy...not anymore! Finally something that does what it says it will!
Works as advertised. July 17, 2006

When connected in-line from my silver-sensor indoor antenna, incoming signal was significantly boosted. Before using this product, the antenna could not lock onto the signal. With the in-line booster, the antenna locks on immediately and signal dropouts are very infrequent.
Bye bye Comcast! March 14, 2008

I bought a Sharp Aquos before Christmas and recently started exploring OTA HDTV. When I bought my house there was an antenna in the attic (a classic VHF/UHF antenna), so I hooked that up to the TV to see what channels I could get. Unfortunately, my local Fox affiliate would not tune and my local NBC station was intermittent--they are both about 35-40 miles away.
I first tried switching to a "HD" antenna, but this was worse than the classic antenna.
Then I hooked up the signal booster. Suddenly, I have all of my locals plus a few I didn't even know existed. The signal is perfect and a lot of the signals are even stronger than what I was getting over a cable from Comcast! I can even now get one station which is located approximately 180 degrees from where the antenna is pointed--although this station is only about 12 miles away.
Anyway, at the end of the month I am cancelling my Comcast subscription since I now have crystal clear HD for free!
