The target for downstream is 0 +/- 3dB on install - anywhere between -3 and +3dB.

The modem should work between +/-15, the actual value will vary from day to day because of weather (esp temperature).

The upstream refers to how loud your modem has to shout be be heard at the right level by ntl at the other end. +48 is a good value, this can rise to about +60 when it may become marginal.

It does look like NTL's problem!
