Hi all,
Just wondered if anyone is clued up about this stuff, having a problem whereby the upstream/downsteam power keeps spiking.
I've had a total of about 6 or 7 engineer visits now, including managers & a network engineer. They seem to think theres something wrong with the cabinet as i'm the only person in it, and to add insult, all the other newly built houses on this street seem to be getting plugged into another cabinet round the corner.
Heres a brief log of my findings so far, and this is only what i've noticed and it has been happening since I moved in about 2 months ago.
Notes:
- Connectivity state vaires from: Access Denied, Not Synchronized and Upstream parameters aquired
- Upstream modulation changes from ADTMA to DTMA
- Downstream modulation changes from QAM64 to QAM256 and only opens one channel instead of four
- Blue heart icon on V Box HD always seems to flash during these outages too.
Date Time* Duration* Upstream Downstream
Fri 3rd June 9:00 am 1 hour 58.2/61.0 ?
Sun 5th June 1:00 pm 30 mins 58.2 ?
1:45 pm 1 hour+ ? ?
Mon 6th June 1:05 am + 58.2 ?
Wed 8th June 7:54 am 5 mins ? ?
Thurs 9th June 3:05 pm 10 mins 58.2 ?
3:17 pm 3 mins 58.2 ?
Fri 10th June 1:25 pm 6 mins 58.2 42.3
11:00 pm 2 hours+ 58.2 45 * Noticed blue heart icon flasing on V Box HD
Sat 11th June 8:13 am 1 hour 15 mins ? ?
10:00 pm 51 mins 58.2 ?
11:29 pm 1 hour 30 mins 58.2 45
*=Approximate
+=Got bored of waiting and left it
Also I can tell you that they have replaced almost everything equipment wise, swapped modem for a superhub, new internal cables, splitters and isolaters and they even changed a tap-plate in the cabinet (whatever that is).
The guy I'm speaking with is one of the managers whose going to come out and check all my equipment again on monday, though he said he passed the job to 'network' and hasn't heard anything back.
So, any advice?
Cheers
