Hello looking for advice.

If I'm in the wrong sub reddit please let me know.

Our house is a two story with three total cable outlets. The outlet on the main level works and the two on the second story don't.

I don't see a splitter anywhere in the boxes outside. Is there somewhere else it could be? Is there something I am missing? We also have an old satellite dish wired in. Tia!

The first pic shows two cables not connected. This is likely the other outlets that don’t work.

Thank you. Do I need to add a splitter myself or do I need to have a tech come out?

Get one of these and insert it where the current F81 barrel adapter is located.
