Re: Power Levels Right Or Do i Need to fit attenuator
downstream power levels too high. Everything else looks ok..

You should be ok with a -10dB forward path attenuator...

Re: Power Levels Right Or Do i Need to fit attenuator
Is your connection OK?

Dont worry about power levels if your connection is fine, youll be watching them all the time (they will fluctuate due to weather) which is silly. My DS is at 14 but my connection is better than ever:

Re: Power Levels Right Or Do i Need to fit attenuator
just got new superhub due to connection rebooting randomly tech support though it was power levels . i think with the attenuator lowers it to with in spec but i reckon first reading is due to cold weather sending it up
