Review on πŸš€ Enhanced Performance: Philips RG6 Quad Shield Coaxial Cable for Premium Signal Transmission by Joseph Reed

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works well: cables and connections

I've had some issues with Comcast's indoor wiring. Troubleshooters came to me 3 times to inspect the cables and make some changes including the changes made in the previous troubleshooter. I kept getting suboptimal signal strength and my internet and streaming TV signals dropped. Anyway, I removed the splitter that one of the troubleshooters in my home office installed right in front of my cable modem and installed a good quality cable extension adapter (RG6 F-Type Coax Cable Extension Adapter with VCE Gold Plating). on the short cable. left the main length of cable at the office and then installed a five or six foot coax cable that Comcast had left between the adapter and my cable modem (third new modem in a year). I was still having problems, so I replaced the coaxial cable with a two meter Philips Elite cable. I wasn't expecting a huge improvement, but the signal strength of both the incoming and outgoing streams improved immediately. None of the problems returned and I've had good, consistent service ever since. Yes, I know that simply removing the splitter from the cable run and replacing the potentially dodgy coax cable that Comcast left behind could account for most or all of the improvement, but I still highly recommend this cable. Now he does his part to provide excellent service.

Pros
  • CONVENIENCE - 6ft (1.8m) cable offers versatile installation options for your indoor space
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
