tbaker397 Posted September 13, 2005 CID Share Posted September 13, 2005 upstream power looks good, your download looks a little high but then again it is an older modem so that might explain why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FallowEarth Posted September 13, 2005 CID Share Posted September 13, 2005 SNR is a bit low too...I might call in and get them to check it out for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwreck Posted October 3, 2005 CID Share Posted October 3, 2005 Any advice on how to check my signal? Every time I try to connect to my modem's ip address, I get a "page cannot be displayed" error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwreck Posted March 17, 2006 CID Share Posted March 17, 2006 I have standard RR, which has just been upgraded to 7000/384 in my area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just- Posted March 17, 2006 CID Share Posted March 17, 2006 ok then you are good ur speed test should come very close if not over ur advertised right? u happy with ur speed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwreck Posted March 17, 2006 CID Share Posted March 17, 2006 Speed is great...generally around 6800-6900 kbps, occasionally up to 7400. The speed is not always consistent and sometimes really plummets, though for very short periods. I do not know if this is normal, or how much of a speed decrease should be expected during "peak" times. I'm not complaining, in any case.
