Hi Bruce

Looking at this from a service technicians point of view.

Downstream Receive Power Level : -8.7 dBmV (borderline)
Downstream SNR : 29.2 dB (borderline)
Upstream Transmit Power Level : 49.50 dBmV (boaderline)

These three atrributes are very borderline. I like to have the signal to noise ratio (SNR) above 30dB and my downstream power level between -4dB to +2dB. I always find a discrepancy between the diagnostic page and my signal meter (and it has been calibrated) of about 2dB.

Give faults a call and get them to send a tech out.
