Comcast keeps saying move it to center of house. So what good is that if the spliter weakens signal.

i am in same boat signal keeps dropping.

In your case, you may have splits in the walls (single line coming into the building, and splits to provide cable outlets to multiple rooms) that are older. Also the cable age matters. The easiest option is having a tech rep com out, connect a scanner to each outlet, and upgrade/update the splits with new ones.

It should provided that there is adequate signal present there to allow for the added loss. You won't know for sure until you try it. Good luck ! Please post back with how it goes.
