What the hell!!??

For some strange reason, at around 19.15 every evening for the past 3 days, I've been disconnected, but reconnected later on. Anyone have a reason for this?

Re: What the hell!!??

With my limited technical experience, I'd hazard a guess that your signal levels aren't quite right.

We had the same trouble a few months ago. We'd be disconnected early evening and then be reconnected later that night (say, 11pm or later).

When an engineer called out he diagnosed dodgy signal levels and gave the explanation that the signals weren't bad enough to cause trouble during the day, but at night when everyone in the area came online, the effects were seen.

So, go to your CM admin webpage and check your levels.

Re: What the hell!!??

A while back I was getting disconnected at around 1am every day.. the modem and router are inaccessible at that time of night so I couldn't check on them but tech support blamed my router (which was functioning fine), however the uptime reported by DOSCDIAG showed that the modem was rebooting about this time. Problem eventually stopped and I still have no idea why.

Re: What the hell!!??

Make sure that you don't have a proxy explicitly specified and if you can't then get to the page reboot everything and try again.

Don't you think I've already tried that? I've checked on the modem status page: the d/s power is pathetic.

If your downstream power is low, phone Broadback Tech Support. They need to check the line, and possibly send an engineer out.

Appologies to Ian, I'm just irritated by this.
