You were probably on a higher powered 'tap' in your street cabinet meaning that power coming into your modem was much higher than it is now and have been changed to a more appropriately powered one for the distance you are from the cabinet.

Keep an eye on it though nonetheless, incase something untoward has happened to cause the power going into your modem to drop, and once that's fixed you'll be way overpowering modem.
