ive also now noticed including today that the card doesnt want to work. a message appears saying the cards expired. a few reboots and its back on.

i done a medic check and RF levels come up as fail.

RF Levels - Equalise - Failed
RF Qaulity - No Action Required - Passed

RF Tests - low ok - medium high - high high
SNR Tests - low ok - medium ok - high ok
SNR Values - low 35 - medium 35 - high 36
Pre RS Error tests - low ok - medium ok - high ok
Pre RS Values - low 1 - medium 0 - high 0
Post RS Error Tests - low ok - medium ok - high ok
Post RS Values - low 0 - medium 0 - high 0

upstream power level 45

MCNS passed all ok

PROV passed all ok.


i have an 8dB FP eqauliser before the splitter.

SH downstream power levels are between + 4-7. SNR is between 41-43. Upstreams power level is 44.

ive already had the box swapped. i was offered a TiVo but 50odd quid in install fees is a no thank you!
the medic is over sensitive on the vhd, a 10db attenuator instead of the equiliser will sort the medic out.
