Unlikely, seeing how far it has already come from the box in the street. A few metres extra will usually be insignificant unless it was marginal already. Bad connectors and joins are more likely to cause problems, so always make up a single full-length cable from the wall box to the STB instead of joining to the existing one, and use CT100 type (foil+braid), not TV aerial cable (braid only).
