will this eliminate ground loop problems with a cable modem? signal strength goes up and down and sometimes does not work.

Drear Lorain, This will eliminate ground loop problems with your cable modem but are your modem's ups and downs caused by a ground loop? Not very likely. Ground loop noise is at low frequencies - mostly 60 Hertz and might reach as high as 1 MHz. Cable modems operate above 5 MHz thus what you are experiencing is most likely interference, such as noise coming from other cable modems that share your line. Another cause of ups and downs is a faulty connection or faulty cable amplifier and the best solution is to call the cable company to test the line. If you still want to try this isolator it won't hurt and there's a small chance it will work for you. Eli

Yes from time to time I do have a problem losing the signal to the internet and I have to reset the modem.

I don't know understand your question. I used this for Comcast cable here in Maryland until my service started having problems. Not sure if it was this modem or something with Comcast signals. But I've since purchased another modem and Comcast works fine. Hope this response helps

I have otimum cable modem now, but also used a wireless clear modem and it worked fine either way.

I haven't tried that set up. The signal going in through a good interface shouldn't degrade or distort. If you try this, lets us here how that worked for you.

I've had the 100' cable working for probably close to a year now. It has never failed to work. Make sure you haven't reversed the cable recently since it will only boost signal in one direction.

I'm going to say no...because its a specialty cable...but if you want to risk tearing the unit up you could slice together some similar gauge wire....don't know what the specs are with signal drop as the unit is powered by 2 double A batteries...hope this helps...its really an awesome security device.

I just tried this with antennas from a dual-band router. I got a 20-25% drop in signal, but it still worked fine. It is important to note however that my desktop is a true desktop i.e. it is located on my desk's surface, and not the floor.

Yup I never had an issue with mine. I live in a two story apartment, router upstairs and pc downstairs. I get 4-5 bars of signal strength all the time

It will only increase your internet signal connection so if your internet was slow because of weak signal it may help but if your deivce/internet it self is slow it will remain the same

It depends on the router and the obstructions. Mine (TP-Link) has produced a signal of a couple of hundred feet. I don't know if it's consistant tho.

Not sure about this, working for my Laptop but signal drops when I move my Laptop to another room in my apartment

Yes. all this does is pass through whatever signal is put through it. No reason it shouldn't work.

I would get rid of all the splitters first. Make a single run to your modem from your drop to your house. Put the line amp before all the splitters but make sure you cable modem has a good grade RG6 coax.

Hi Jasmine, what you are referring to must be the credentials of your wi-fi router. It doesn't have anything to do with the cable modem.

I haven't experienced that specific issue myself. My area is much smaller so most of the time if I start getting slower signal I have to manually switch to the stronger network.

The Motorola signal booster I purchased did nothing to improve the signal strength of my system (although I was looking for a better cable TV signal) and it knocked out my internet signal. For my system it was a waste of time and money (I have Comcast as an internet / TV / Phone provider) your situation may be different.
