Two splitters on the same connection??

Yes, I split the main cable connection into 2 cables (6-foot to TV,
20-foot to computer) and then split the computer cable into 2 6-foot
cables for 2 computers. Have I violated some limit?
Thanks for your help.

No, not exactly.
Every splitter in the chain will cause a signal loss of about 3dB on
average. 3dB compares to about 1/2 the signal is lost. Cable companies
can make up for this loss by providing an amplifier to the signal coming
into the house; but, they really don't like doing that.
You may want to contact your cable company and request a service visit
to check the signal quality. They have equipment to measure quality and
may even have a solution for your problem.
Good Luck,

Thanks for all the help. I'll try things without the splitters. And
I'll shutup for now unless I solve the problem with a Fedora related fix.
Regards,
John
