Okey dokey!

I do have a splitter feeding both the TV and modem, I did notice Sky Sports 2 went off Monday/Tuesday (posted that in the TV forum) but seems OK now, coincidence? No problems with TV in general, never shows any sign of problems when the modem reboots and only had 1 problem with the TV a few weeks ago that had been a local fault on Sky Sports 1 that has cleared.

Something that may help, the RF filter (silver box) on the back of the Analogue STB had one of the pins broke off (my fault) so it wouldn't work when plugged into the STB, so I just unscrewed it and screwed the two cables straight into the STB, the TV is working fine but could this be the cause? Do I really need that RF filter to be on the back of the STB anyway?
