Re: Which is best

Thanks Ignition...the reason why i'm asking is because, I've played about due to lagging spikes during game play.
The 1st of the 2 readings what you see above is with a FAT -3dB Attentuator on a wireless network, While the 2nd one is without the Attentuator.

After taking myself of the wireless side and connecting via a normal lan cable and putting the Attentuator back on...........

Downstream channel
power level ..................... -1.84dBmV
Signal to Noise Ratio.......... 36dB
Upstream channel
power level ..................... -39.50dBmV

4th Reading with the Attentuator taken back off and still on a lan cable

Downstream channel
power level ..................... -0.51dBmV
Signal to Noise Ratio.......... 36dB
Upstream channel
power level ..................... -38.25dBmV

I'm now presuming that if the 2nd reading was the best out of the 1st 2 then the 4th reading is better out of the 4th.

Since the FAT -3dB Attentuator was fitted by an Engineer, there has been work done on the outside system quite a few times ie: blown Caps, Rewiring Etc

I did have a look at different postings like

aswell as others, but these were guides and didn't answer my actual question
so Thanks for all your help
