Surge Protector for ISP Coaxial Cable?
Am I at any risk of a surge coming through the coax cable, going into the modem then through connected Ethernet cables to other decodes? I have the modem’s AC hookup to a surge protector, so I’m not too worried about that, but I feel like the coax cable is vulnerable.
Do splitters offer any type of surge protection? I wondered if that’s why Comcast put one on the coax able coming out of the floor when I only buy internet from them, meaning I didn’t really need the line to be split for cable service.
