Acceptable power levels?

Having had a stable 20Mb connection for a few years (albeit with a 12dB attenuator attached to my modem), I've just hooked up and activated my Superhub and am having a few stability issues.

Now, I don't know if it's because i've literally just activated it (within the past 30 mins), but it's up and down like a yo-yo at the moment.

Can't seem to find power levels relating to 30Mb peeps, but do levels below seem acceptable?

(Sorry for the dull question - i'm just wondering whether or not I need/should take off the 12dB attenuator, as the 30Mb might benefit from it?!)

Thanks!

Powere levels are the same for all tiers pretty much and those levels are basically perfect

Ah that's good then - i'll leave the attenuator on

Annoying how i'm constantly dropping offline though

Nothing useful in the hub eventlogs either

Re: Acceptable power levels?

Actually having a second look at it your SNR levels are a little low especially on the second channel, but there near enough the same as mine and mine works fine
