Most antennas will come witht he adapter mentioned above. You run a coax antenna cable (RG6) from the antenna to the point where the cable entered the house.
Use a passive splitter or powered distribution amp designed for digital TV to connect that lead to the other cable wires.

Yes! The HD antenna cable will have to be separated from the internet cable, but that's exactly the setup I have in my house. You probably already have a splitter in the attic from the cable company that sends the signal to the tvs. I'm not sure how to separate the internet and antenna, but there is info online, or you could hire someone. I paid about $100 to have someone install my antenna. He used to work for the cable company so he knew what he was doing. He had to go up into a steaming hot attic, so it was worth the money. You might just look into that. Every tv in the house gets the signal. Then buy yourself a Tablo - whole house DVR. I never miss cable - definitely not the ridiculous bill.
