Still having problems.
I bought a "1 in 2 out " splitter. Both boxes on that cable show "no signal" If i put a male connector between the cable and connect the new box, it is fine. Do you think i'm best off with this type of splitter?

looking at that splitter it says you can as long as both boxes are using the polarity?
Also when connecting 1x box through the splitter, i still get no signal. In theory that should work.
