directv and TWC internet using one coax?

[scarmody]

I currently have directv and am trying to self install TWC internet. Is it possible to use the directv coax cable for the TWC internet as well? The TWC tech was unable to access the rear yard in order to run the new coax, so would ideally love to just use the existing directv coax for both. Is there a splitter or some other piece of equipment that would work? Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.

thank you!!

No you can't. Directv coax uses SWM and TW coax uses HFC and they are not compatible with each other. If you want to know more about SWM and HFC, do a Google search.
