And if this happened in the US the ISP would just tell customers to reboot their modem or something Having worked for a US ISP, there are network engineers who isolate homes that cause a lot of interference, and disconnect their line, put a tag on it, and set up a work order for a home technician (my job) to isolate the issue and do whatever repairs are possible. For a noisy TV like that guy had, we had filters that could be installed on the TV cable line that would block upstream signals but still allow the downstream signal in. (For basic cable coming in to a TV, this doesnt interfere with the function as it doesnt transmit anything back to the cable system) --- Posted from my iPhone 8 ... Copied to Clipboard! |
