Yeh.  It is kinda quiet.  Re your question.  I'm under the impression, because of what I've read here, that Cat-5 is superior to coax.  However, in our case, the house is only 4 years old.  RG-6 coax was installed throughout the structure during construction.  The installer decided to go with the coax and it seems to be doing the job just fine.  We did have a couple of issues.....the microscopic sliver of metal in the coax connector for one....but everything seems to be perking along just fine for now.  I check my stats occasionally.  Over the past 35 days we have a huge number of correcte blocks but our uncorrected blocks are VERY low.  I have no issues right now....with TV or broadband Internet.  Just want MORE HD channels.  But that's another subject.:smileyhappy:
