There are bigger things in life to be concerned about mate....

Re: Should I be concerned

Normally, I would not be concerned, but recently have been having problems with YOUTUBE, lots of stop/start jittering etc.

Well that's a concern, but the high power levels are unlikely to be the cause. (I assume the 4th column is the SNR - in which case the channels with the highest power actually have the best SNR).

Give VM a call at the time you are experiencing the YouTube problem.

Re: Should I be concerned

Is the jittering on a wired or a wireless device?

Re: Should I be concerned

I would keep an eye on it, +10 is the max so if it starts going into 11+ then you need to put a 7db attenuator on it to bring it down to the 3s

Re: Should I be concerned

Latency appears to have "calmed" down overnight?



BUT Youtube still unwatchable, too many dropped frames.

Self test, states no fault

Re: Should I be concerned

Looks more like M50 to me :p I thought it might have been the speedtest you were doing providing inconsistent results, I normally use speedtest.net. I have just done mine and they are very similar so you can take your 46.5mbits as gospel which is a bit pants really

I am showing as normal full speed on SPEEDTEST.NET
ThinkBroadband has always been similar.
Something very strange happening.

Re: Should I be concerned

You posted your upstream levels in the other thread and i believe they are too low so you need to get that fixed as that will be your problem.

32-33 is on the low side i think.
