Update.. well the Engineer showed up well on time. came in.. looked at the signal levels and said.. hmm they're a bit low.. then spotted the box where there was a y-splitter on the cable.. one to feed the V-box i had taken out over a year ago.. he said.. that wont help if its not in use.. removed that.. signal then was "too high" so he nipped to the van, stuck an attenuator on the back of the modem and proclaimed the signal "perfect".

Its been rock solid for the week. so all in all i'm happy.. just wish it hadnt taken so long to get sorted.
