help needed

quick rundown

cable comes into front of house. Splitter from box into lounge (and TV....) other cable from splitter goes around back of house and into another splitter.....one to computer..other to Tv in extension

No issues for 12 months until modem ready light on computer suddenly goes into flashing mode.......

(my lad tells me theres a big Virgin van down the bottom of the road connecting someone up )

quick solution..plug modem into TV cable socket at front of house...20mb on computer but no Tv front lounge

Call engineer...attends today and confirms all connections are ok and goes to box down road and 'increases power'

states 'you may have issues' and clears off..TV in lounge working but speedtest has dropped by half

The issues are : TV in extension is now a wobbly signal with a humming noise and bandwidth from PC socket around back of house is non existant..TV in front lounge is ok

Can it really be that someone getting connected up has effected my connections

I need to take another day off for them to come back
