A long list of ideas:
On my amp 240AC I used a commercial line filter plus a multi turn green
wire going thru a 240-31 core to keep rf out of the AC power grounds.
(I assume the amp has it's separate ground wire to the single point)
Technically not UL, but it has worked and the safety issue is beyond
remote. You could add another filter for the router AC, and a green
wire ferrite if it has a green wire connection. An AC line in the US
isn't balanced and clamp on chokes can only do common mode. Maybe you
need more chokes on the 40m feedline. Check the grounding block on the
RG6 entry. All RG6 connectors need to be really tight. It's unlikely
there is leakage into the RG6 except at connectors. Maybe give each one
a hard tug test. Replace any store bought "RG6" jumpers with custom
made ones, cable installers have made them for me.

On 40m when I transmit at full power my upstream cable modem data
connection experiences packet loss and slows down.
I've added substantial amounts of ferrite to the CATV coax, ethernet cable
and power cable.
Just wondering if anyone has ideas for other approaches to reducing this
RFI that might work. I tried adding additional fair rite type 31 snap-on
beads along the length of coax between the house and the cable company's
hardline but they seemed to have no effect. I also tried wrapping the
cable modem in aluminum foil and connecting the foil to the station's
single point ground, which also seemed to have no effect.
My transmissions on 40m seem to have no impact on the performance of
download performance, only upload performance. The cable modem is a high
end DOCSIS 3.1 model from Motorola.
I had a new run of coax installed by the cable company today from the house
to the hard line and it did not reduce the problem.
Suggestions for other things to try would be much appreciated.
