Internet signal through cable will not like going though too many splitters and amp/switch. Try to find a direct connection. Many trailers will have a "SAT" cable run that can be used for direct connection.
Trouble with SAT cabling in that vintage of RV's they hid splitters in the cabling in strange places. Our 2005 5th wheel had one hidden behind a panel in the entertainment center. Our 2017 5th wheel was much better with four sat connections in the UDC, Two from the roof top pre wired sat location and one each to the bedroom and living roof TV locations. A 5th connection in the UDC was for park cable input which is routed to the OTA roof top antenna power supply in the bedroom closet. The back side of the power supply has 1. Cable input from UDC 2. Input from the roof top antenna 3. Cable to the LR TV plus the connection on the front of the power supply for the BR TV.
So one could identify the cable input run from docking station to the power supply and remove it, and connect it to the CABLE MODEM.
BTW our 2019 TT had a splitter hidden in the bedroom wall behind the power supply in the SAT cabling.
