But then there would be no signal at all or would there??
I have found the specs of the first distribution box - the LABGEAR MSA282, which can be found on page 2 here and of the replacement box - the Antiference A281L Pro, which can be found here. The only difference I can see is in the wiring into and out of the boxes. The A28 uses F-connectors whereas the MSA282 is connected via standard coax connectors. I'll take the whole set-up around the new box apart and re-wire it myself. Hopefully that will put it to bed, so to speak. Thanks again for your time. |

There may be some intermittent signal. These are not CC issued so I presume the landlord contracted someone in to do the job? I can guarantee you they haven't done it correctly.
Sounds as said earlier that you have no subscription. I would recommend you get a basic subscription and then you are assured of a live connection. Or else test the line all the way yourself. What part of Dublin are you in roughly? |

Any luck in rewiring it? Use either CT100 or RG6 and good quality RF connectors.

Just to get back to you, I split the feed before it reached the distribution box. It is now back up and running perfectly.
Thanks for your time in trying to help me with this problem. |
