Re: [Speed] Problem with Downstream on MACH20 in Chicago
I appreciate the input. The thing is, I have one cable coming in the apartment which was run by an RCN technician. There are no splitters of any sort in between the cable modem and the line. I can't speak to the previous power readings, but I don't ever remember it being that high. Is there anything that could have caused the power to jump outside of my apartment (i.e. in other parts of the building)?
Yes, bad cable shielding or connectors (among other things) elsewhere in the building could allow ingress of interfering signals; your modem will then have to shout louder so that it can be heard above the background noise. As I said, if everything seems fine with your equipment, a tech will have to check things out.
