I'd be appreciated if somebody can answer my problem with combining digital cable and satellite signals in one cable.
I've done it using diplexers, but I lost HBO and other pay channels in digital cable.
In my understanding, diplexer cutting out some frequencies.
Any suggestions?

It is cutting the old HBO (analog) from cable
I think it is ch 14 or 2-15
Not the digital channels that is for sure
I bet yo got modem interference

This is a rare one
But there are ways around it

The simplest way is to change brand Diplexer
Sometimes inline surge protector or stablizer
Must take voltage measurements on your cable
Post me your readings
Very simple readings if yo got a voltameter

Check this section to compare your wiring

I don't have cable modem.
Diplexers - exactly the same as on your photo, but without "King".
Talk to the fiend who is with dishnetwork, he said diplexer cutting out 800-1000 mgz range from cable side and this where those channels are.
Will try different brand.
Thanks guys.
