I am an NTL Customer in Milton Keynes. I have 2 CFT-2100 boxes in my house and find that reception varies.

In my loft the signal from NTL comes in and is split using a 4-way splitter with 3.5dB gain. The TV in the living room is fine and I receive all NTL channels, the TV in the kitchen does not have great reception on the standard channels and the NTL channels are somewhat intermittent and the TV reception in the bedroom is poor and all I get is -E on the NTL cable box when I press F4.

I would like to try and boost the signal in addition to splitting it at the source. When I try a booster from Maplin SLx6 way booster and splitter the signal for the NTL boxes seems to be lost and all boxes get the -E sign when I press F4.

Is there a booster/splitter I can use that keeps the NTL signal intact going to my CFT-2100 boxes..

Please help.
