Long-term investigation of unstable input
Forum rules
IMPORTANT:
This subforum is for advanced users only. This separate area is for niche or unexpected lag issues such as electromagnetic interference (EMI, EMF, electrical, radiofrequency, etc). Interference of all kinds (wired, wireless, external, internal, environment, bad component) can cause error-correction (ECC) latencies like a bad modem connection, except internally in a circuit. ECC = retransmits = lag. Troubleshooting may require university degree. Your lag issue is likely not EMI.

Re: Long-term investigation of unstable input
We have a TN-C-S electrical system serving four houses. If a coaxial cable is severed at one of the other houses, could it affect the electricity supply in my home???

Re: Long-term investigation of unstable input
My house has coaxial cables connected to the TV in rooms separate from my PC; nothing in the PC room, including the internet, has coaxial cables. The idea is to remove all the coaxial cables or connect just one to my PC. Could you explain how we can do this?

Re: Long-term investigation of unstable input
Could you provide a little more detail, please?
I'm not sure what you mean by saying the issue is related to Coax.

If you don't know what you are doing or don't know how to cut/disconnect coax temporarily.
There should not be any current on the coax cable.
Ask someone who knows how to do it.

I connected a coax cable coming from my TV antenna into a wall coax port.

Re: Long-term investigation of unstable input
I have multiple open coax ports that has no terminator cap or are unplugged, here is sweden we have 3 coax connections in each outlet.. I wonder if this could be itastroasis wrote: βYesterday, 14:14I connected a coax cable coming from my TV antenna into a wall coax port.

Re: Long-term investigation of unstable input
It could be bro, the coax stuff is the only thing that maintains the change, I also have multiple open coax ports left in the house so I'm gonna try terminators when they arrive. For now keeping a connection from the attic tv antenna to my downstairs living room coax port via a standard coax cable is keeping my pc good, terminators might be a different effect on things considering they cancel out the line so we'll seedurlite wrote: βYesterday, 15:00I have multiple open coax ports that has no terminator cap or are unplugged, here is sweden we have 3 coax connections in each outlet..

Re: Long-term investigation of unstable input
Could a disconnected coaxial cable in my home affect this? I have several coaxial antenna cables, but they are disconnected from the TV (even though the cables themselves are still there).astroasis wrote: βYesterday, 15:10It could be bro, the coax stuff is the only thing that maintains the change, I also have multiple open coax ports left in the house so I'm gonna try terminators when they arrive.
