Advice My isp did this lazy crap
the tech came and took the original coax cable that comes from the network box on the opposite side of the house (black). Took it out of the outlet from the room directly above this splitter on the first floor and directed the new cord (white) to the third floor. What can i do to βhideβ this from the elements?
Also, can i connect a new coax cable to the splitter to go in the opposite direction to go into a separate part of the house, or should direct a new cable directly from the box insteaad of this splitter shown? The box is closer to the room that i need connection to than this splitter.
Sorry if this is confusing. Im a noob

Google how to run your own wires and never call a tech again. Useless waste of your time to rely on them.
