I'll just take it back to maplin... and ask them.. as I say, I can't get the net on when using this splitter

Does it say 5-50000mhz on splitter as it does on the picture, if so it should be fine maybe his signal levels are too low to work both also recheck all the fittings make sure there is no braiding touching centre hard copper core causing a short and check all connections are at least finger tight.

I'll have a look later... If his signal level is too low, how can can it be boosted?
