that power level on the screen shot is sick way out of line!!!!

I have a MOtorola Surfboard (SB) 5120 and would not trade it for anything in the world!.

Way easy. I have a 6/1 line, i get 6.3/.75 consistently, upload will never be at 1mbps.

the motorola has a great feature, (screen shot above) for diagnostics, one problem with ISP's

is it finding a TIME STAMP.. this can be fixed via help from a knowledgable tech from your ISP helpdesk, i would suggest asking for a supervisor, or tier2 tech, or a "product specialist", whichever

terminology your isp uses.

Frequency  591000000 Hz

Signal to Noise Ratio 29 dB

QAM 256

Network Access Control Object ON

Power Level 2 dBmV 

The Downstream Power Level reading is a snapshot taken at the time this page was requested. Please Reload/Refresh this Page for a new reading

Upstream Value

Channel ID 4

Frequency 30992000 Hz

Ranging Service ID 68

Symbol Rate 3.200 Msym/s

Power Level 38 dBmV

as u can see, i have much diff power settings, i do however have a diff ISP im sure, and a diff speed package, which im SURE this makes a big diff.

IF you have to buy your own modem ??????... get a motorola sb5120, u won't be disappointed.

I am using a Motorola SurfBoard SB5120.  My Netgear RP6114 v3 seemly is shot.  Any suggestions for a 4 port router as a replacement?  Thanks. :cry:

Motorola SurfBoard SB5100 is the best one out there (my opinion)

It is compatible with most of the other devices (routers and voip gizmos)

I work in Voip Provider company as technical support and when even we see the customer has SB5100, its a relief to us.

Your going to caught uncapping your modem, if you are, the highest modem that you can uncap right now is the sb4200, unless you to that one site and buy there package that shows you how to open the 5100, even then your going to get caught.
