If it's affecting your service call tech support, otherwise leave it be. So long as it works there's no problem at the moment :)

Re: power levels
 

thanks Ignition - I often read but not post - and have come to respect your advice. no problems now - but just concerned that it might be going off - used to be 7 then 9 then 11 and now 13...

Ok, sounds like the local network is drifting a bit on power levels. All things being well the local network crew will spot this before it becomes an issue and will 'line up' the network and sort it as part of their normal maintenance.

Power levels can also change due to the weather.

If you start seeing your connection getting unstable though, don't hesitate to call in, it's what the TSB are there for.

Re: power levels
 

just checked mine.....

Downstream Receive Power Level : -17.3 dBmV

according to the sticky, that doesnt look very good :shocked:

Re: power levels
 

Not too good - drop me your MAC address and I'll check the other four indicators and try and see if they give us a clue.

Re: power levels

Re: power levels

Re: power levels
 

You are using the right login then, but you may have to reboot the modem to get to the page.

Also, make sure you do not have a proxy server specified in tools-> internet options-> connections-> lan settings :)

I could do with a bit of help. Had problems recently with the connection dropping out and a few websites not working, or taking a long time to load.

My signal levels are:

Downstream Receive Power Level : -21.0 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 24.8 dB
Upstream transmit Power Level : 61.0 dBmV

Could that be why? I have a NTL 250 Badged Modem. Thought I'd ask you guys in here first rather than try on the phones!

Ben.
