If you do report the problem to your cable company, they'll tell you to
get rid of crappy splitters. Or if you get a tech to your place, they will
usually give you better splitters. A tech can also check your signal. At
least with Time Warner, haven't delt with anyone else yet.

Depending on where you live, a cable tech might have to come out and
checkout things on their end. Apperently some residents in my apartment
building were complaining about poor picture, and some random tech came
out and cranked up the signal strength to the point where it would kill
Road Runner connections. Turning the signal strength down seems to have
fixed our problems, and I don't have any picture quality issues, so
hopefully nobody will complain until after I move out.
