What would happen if used a two way splitter and then split one of those lines again with another two way splitter?

Will the over-the-air digital TV signal strength increase when they turn off the analog? I recall seeing the timelines in the legislation that said they must be up to "full signal strength" a few years ago, but it seems the signal is still weak. Even in town, I get occasional signal problems during wind, precipitation, or sometimes no reason at all. What's worse, a bad digital signal just cuts out altogether rather than just get snowy. Anyone know if at least the networks will increase the over-the-air digital signal even more once they cut off the analog?

How can I improve the Signal Strength of my BT HomeHub? After much messing about I finally managed to get my Hub to run broadband wirelessly, via resetting the hub and a whole lot of luck! However, I can't seem to get the signal any higher than "very low" or "low". I have delved into the BT site and tried adjusting channels manually but to no avail. The hub is sat a foot away from my desktop currently so distance isnt the problem and Ive tried removing all equipment such as cordless phones, speakers etc from the immediate vicinity. I had the power removed from the hub and tried again last night but the signal strength is still pants. Any help or other routes to try would be greatly appreciated! Good luck dudes! To clarify, i had the desktop upstairs but had to bring it down to install with the ethernet, and dont want to carry the monolith desk and all upstairs untill ive got a quality reception from a foot!

Why does my laptop keep dropping off our wireless network even though signal strength is excellent? It will drop off the network (and therefore off the internet) for no apparent reason. Signal strength is great, but suddenly, no connection to the network. After awhile I get a message saying "This computer is no longer connected to the network..." Then, a few minutes later (sometimes longer) it reconnects automatically. Sometimes it doesn't, and I have to manually reconnect, and/or go through the "repair connection" procedure. This is becoming very frequent (sometimes every few minutes) and very annoying. Any ideas? Thanks...
