modem config
 
Just checking my broadband settings on my modem and I get the following

Network Access : Allowed
Maximum Downstream Data Rate : 0
Maximum Upstream Data Rate : 0
Maximum Upstream Channel Burst : 0
Maximum Number of CPEs : 1
Modem Capability : Concatenation Enabled, Fragametation Enabled, PHS Enabled

Any reason why they are zero?

Thanks

why u moaning if its working?

Fred_Smith 08-03-2009 16:12

Re: modem config
 
not moaning, just wondered why the settings were zero, as previously they showed the maximum speed the modem would run at

Re: modem config
 
Strange...What speed are you getting?

Fred_Smith 08-03-2009 16:26

Re: modem config
 
I haven't run a speed test, but everything seems normal

broadbandking 08-03-2009 16:30

Re: modem config
 
Run a speed test for us and powercycle the modem and check the setting then please and post back here

Fred_Smith 08-03-2009 16:33

Re: modem config
 
speed test (speedtest.net) 18342 Kbps down and 768kbps upload rebooting now

Re: modem config
 
Mine is like that too and has been since Thursday. My IP and Host also changed.

I'm on 20MB and have run speed tests and am getting max speed day and night.

I thought it might have something to do with them getting ready to release the 50MB in my area.

Fred_Smith 08-03-2009 16:38

Re: modem config
 
woo hooo hopefully ;-) well rebooted, and got the same results. however speedtest.net shows a slightly slower download speed of 13468Kbps

Re: modem config
 
my latest speedtest done through this site

Sun, 08 Mar 2009 16:39:50 GMT

Test 1: 1024K took 411 ms = 2491.5 KB/sec, approx 20530 Kbps, 20.05 Mbps
Test 2: 1024K took 434 ms = 2359.4 KB/sec, approx 19441 Kbps, 18.99 Mbps
Test 3: 1024K took 427 ms = 2398.1 KB/sec, approx 19760 Kbps, 19.3 Mbps
Test 4: 2048K took 898 ms = 2280.6 KB/sec, approx 18792 Kbps, 18.35 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 19631 Kbps, 19.17 Mbps

Maybe the config file is not updating from the server nothing to worry to about if your speeds are ok just keep a eye on it

broadbandbug 08-03-2009 16:48

Re: modem config
 
Maybe they are changing the config files so that they don't show upstream or downstream speeds anymore ? ;)

I guess somethings changed with it over the last couple of days

On my Webstar modem when going to http://192.168.100.1, I've only recently started getting the:

"This feature is not enabled.
This feature has not been enabled in your cable modem."


on the Signal / Status / Log menu items. :/

Not really botherd ATM, since my broadband's working as expected, but out of curiosity I used the default password on the access level page and the log shows

Improper Configuration File CVC Format

:confused:

The is no password required on the Webstar modems or Motorola modems, passwords were an NTL foible on their modems, Telewest never used them up till the Ambit 256.

My Motorola modem gives me full access to all pages.

Precisely why I put in my post

I would advise you to call Tech Support as the should be no password used to access the Webstar modem as that is something I have not heard of and I should know check my sig below.

Re: modem config
 
I hope that this isn't the start of "lets hide the configs", because sometimes when people upgrade, the modem doesn't accept the upgraded config file first time round (as was the case for me some months ago), and the only way people realise, is by checking the config.

Without the ability to check the modem config, people could, in theory, be paying for 10meg, while their modem is still only configured for 2megs without realizing it.

Just to add, my modem shows the config just fine at the moment, so no problems here.

As part of my job I may ask you to check the power levels within your modem so disallowing users access to the configuration pages will make diagnostics more difficult.

Re: modem config
 
Already have a fix for the us/ds speeds not being reported correctly on the Ambit 250, it should be rolled out shortly.

The other issue of the internal diagnostics page being unavailable should be fixed at the same time.

will this also fix this same problem on the virgin 256 modem?

No, unfortunately this will only be for the 250's.

I'll chase up the 256 firmware in the morning! :)

Re: modem config
 
im on 20mb and my modem operation config page says the same thing:-

Network Access : Allowed
Maximum Downstream Data Rate : 0
Maximum Upstream Data Rate : 0
Maximum Upstream Channel Burst : 0
Maximum Number of CPEs : 1
Modem Capability : Concatenation Enabled, Fragametation Enabled, PHS Enabled

I'm not having any issues with my connection at all. A friend of mine has the same speed internet as me has the same operation config page says zero's.
