"Free" cable

I know there is a difference between what the TVs get and the cable gets,
and the power with which they get them.  I got a 4 way splitter from TWC
about a month ago.  The 4 splits were each labeled 7.0 [I can't remember
the units, I'm not at home so I can't check ;)].  After a day, my internet
died.  I had to go back and get a splitter than fed the cable modem 3.5.
That fixed the problem.  Not sure exactly why that was.  In fact, the TWC
idiots told me when I got the first one that it wouldn't be a problem, and
stared at me for awhile when I told them I needed a splitter with a 3.5
output.  TWC people never seem to know what they're talking about.
