On NTL.
As per title,is the broadband and cable tv off the same cable just with a splitter of sorts?
The reason i ask is i already have broadband in the bedroom,can i have cable tv installed without another extra cable running round the house?
Sorry for all the questions,cheers

assuming it's the same system as in NZ, I just put in a splitter on the cable (it's different from an aerial cable splitter) and then connected one 'out' cable to the cable modem to interpret the computer data signal and the other 'out' cable to a de-coder box to intepret / unlock the TV signal.

Seriously Cable companies have to spend loads of money trying to keep there network clean, loose connector, wrong type cables, etc, etc can and do compromise there network.
