Once considered a highly technical device only for the most technologically capable, the cable modem is now a tool used in the vast majority of households. If you want to use your cable modem in the same general area as your television but you are having trouble with just one cable jack, then maybe you should invest in a splitter. A splitter will essentially make it so that you can run one cable to the modem, and one to the television. This can be an excellent alternative to having two separate devices in different locations of your home.
