Modem configuration has changed - help!
Ooops, That was Modem! configuration has changed.
Hi there, Recently my connection speed has reduced drastically. It was 10mb per pc, limited I think by my ancient router. It is now optimistically 1mb!
I had a replacement modem 4 years ago. At that time I recorded this configuration: Notice taps 32 increment 4, amongst others.
Cable Modem Upstream
Upstream Lock : Locked
Upstream Channel ID : 3
Upstream Frequency : 29200000 Hz
Upstream Modulation : QPSK
Upstream Symbol Rate : 2560 Ksym/sec
Upstream transmit Power Level : 42.5 dBmV
Upstream Mini-Slot Size : 2
Cable Modem Downstream
Downstream Lock : Locked
Downstream Channel Id : 4
Downstream Frequency : 402750000 Hz
Downstream Modulation : QAM256
Downstream Symbol Rate : 5360.537 Ksym/sec
Downstream Interleave Depth : taps32Increment4
Downstream Receive Power Level : 0.5 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 41.9 dB
It is now:
Cable Modem Downstream
Downstream Lock : Locked
Downstream Channel Id : 64
Downstream Frequency : 435000000 Hz
Downstream Modulation : QAM256
Downstream Symbol Rate : 6952 Ksym/sec
Downstream Interleave Depth : taps12Increment17
Downstream Receive Power Level : -2.7 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 38.0 dB
Cable Modem Upstream
Upstream Lock : Locked
Upstream Channel ID : 11
Upstream Frequency : 32600000 Hz
Upstream Modulation : QPSK
Upstream Symbol Rate : 5120 Ksym/sec
Upstream transmit Power Level : 38.4 dBmV
Upstream Mini-Slot Size : 4
Notice the taps and increment have changed. I didn't do it! is this why it's going slow? Or is there another underlying issue. I'm in Hemel Hempstead, HP1. Other web sites have indicated this is a "slow area". But 1mb? Help!
