Product Description:
When using your TV or computer, there's nothing more frustrating than encountering poor reception. Now there's a fast and effortless way to make your signal strength up to 32 times more powerful! The Motorola Signal Booster enhances analog and digital picture quality, improves cable modem communication, and reduces lost data. It's easy to install and tools are not required. This device also allows you to optimize multiple broadband devices in your home - televisions, cable set-top boxes, cable modems, VCRs, and digital radios - all from one convenient cable. Clearly, the Motorola Signal Booster is a strong alternative to weak signal quality.

Rating : - Great signal booster!
I just upgraded my cable at home from analog basic to digital with the HD package. The tech who came to my house tested the signal strength at the locations where the HD boxes were going to be installed and said that the signal strength was borderline between acceptable and non-acceptable due to multiple splits, not only at the cable feed entry point into the house but also in two other locations throughout the house. He recommended getting a booster because he didn't have any in his truck (yeah right). I should mention that the one connection with the highest signal strength is reserved for my cable modem because of their finicky nature with signal strength. I was able to test my signal strength throughout the house by accessing my cable modem via my home network (http://192.168.100.1) and logging into via the default username and password which is "root".

The tech said that most everything would probably work but I might have issues with OnDemand and certain channels due to the low power signals. We hooked everything up and it seemed to be working alright. After a few days the OnDemand and channel guide were working intermittently so I decided to get a booster like he recommended. I purchased the Motorola Booster from Amazon because of the high ratings and its ability to allow return signals from DOCSIS cable modems. The installation is straightforward, simple and fast. I installed it before the main splitter like most people recommended in these reviews, in fact, I don't know what the instructions said because I didn't read them. That's how simple this thing is.........

I tested the signal strength again (with my cable modem) after installation of the booster and received a 12db gain in signal strength (-18db signal strength without the booster went to -6db with booster)! Works great and resolved all the issues I was having with my digital services mentioned above. In addition, I know that that the signal strength does not give you "faster" Internet speeds from your ISP, persay, but after conducting internet speed tests I noticed a significant increase in download speeds after installing the booster. I believe this is in part to the original signal strength being somewhat weak to the cable modem which prevents it from performing at its maximum potential.

Bottom Line: This booster works great, is easy to install, and works with cable modems.
