As each time you add a splitter to a cable connection you are halving the signal strength, you should split the side used for TV not the side used for Internet.

Most often this is due to firewall restrictions. Check with your Internet provider to see if you have a firewall built in to your Cable/DSL modem. Windows XP SP2 also enabled the firewall on the computer.

You should contact your cable company and ask them

Can be a physical level problem: your internet cable is properly plugged in to your computer or to the outside line.\nCan be a internet configuration problem.  If you have broadband, call your service provider.  If you have dial-up, in internet explorer, go to tools -> internet options -> connections, and make sure the configuration is correct.

OK Here I go...You hit a particular nerve with me.  I personally have a DVR box instead of just a cable box that records all shows that I want to watch and then I watch them on my schedule.  For ex: I never watch "LOST" on Weds I watch on Saturday when I'm not distracted (and quite possibly get scared) So I pay extra for the DVR but to me it's worth it. What I fear is going to be the new trend and it's already started is you're going to pay for cable, and then pay for TV shows per show to be able to watch them without commercials.  So if you don't have the DVR, but you get home from your shift, you can tune to a station that will repeat a show for you, with no ads for say 99 cents. Cable Co's are the last Monopoly that have yet to be dealt with; in most areas you're supposed to have a choice between two alternate methods of reception, but Satellite is one of the choices, so there really isn't free market for most cable subscribers. This really frosts me because then they bundle your internet/phone/TV/Cable/DVR/Cable box and tell you you're saving money.  But as you said, if you watch TV after 2:00 a.m. there is no TV; it sucks as bad as in the 80's

Very good question - I suppose they (the stations) make more money when the average person is awake - therefore, more viewers blah blah... but it drives me crazy - this is why I love my TiVo.

Connect an antenna to the back of the TV where you would connect the cable TV, and on the settings or menu of your TV, set it up so the TV picks up local AIR instead of cable TV.  Reception will be poor and will sort of betray the idea of spending extra $$ for an LCD

If you need a set-top box to tune in the channels you want, you can't use just the tuner card; you need to plug the box into the card.\n\nIf you cable company supports cablecard, and your tuner card also supports cablecard, you could simply get a cablecard from your cable company and plug that in.

do you have a cable box?

Could be because the room was full.  This is typicaly the cause, so wait a bit and try again.  There are other technical issues that could interfere, but they are less common and would require more information to diagnose.

you proabaly need to select the "INPUT" source for the PiP and yeah, sometimes its difficult to change the channel on the smaller pic.  I think on my TV its easier because the big pic will be off satellite and the PiP 'source' coming from the VCR so I can just change the channel on the VCR using its remote (or the satellite remote if needed).
