After much damage to routers and other hardware due to surges coming in on my coax cable from storms I tried to add switches to my coax ahead of my routers to easily disconnect during peak lightning storms. Commercially available switches ( to change from games to tv ) generally only switch the center wire while leaving the shielding ground cables connected. My plan was to use dbl. pole, dbl. throw switches to disconnect both. Problem is this will not work ! I fully expected some RF leakage but did not expect it to not work at all. I even connected some jumpers across the switches thinking maybe it was just a poor connections in the switch. This also failed and I get no signal at all thru my little box with nice new connectors and switches. What am I missing here ?
