Re: New drop installed, now what?

Yes, RG11 drop.

SNR a little low, what did you use for lvl readings?

Go for RG6 throughout the house, get ride of RG59.

Are you sure that your 3-way splitter is (3.5x2 and a 7db) usually its (3.5 and 2x7db loss).

Re: New drop installed, now what?

Got those level readings from SB5101 modem. I think I typo'd that 3 way splitter which was supposed to read 2 - 7dB outputs. The UPS guy is dropping off some RG6 and some new splitters tomorrow. I had decided to just order the stuff, make some shorter cable to get rid of the currently excessive length, and replace the RG59 and install new splitters in the process. Maybe that will help the SNR as well?

Re: New drop installed, now what?

SNR is okay, less than 30 is usually considered low. the norm is about 32. 33 to 35 looks good.

Signal Attenuation from your modem look great.

My real question is.. are you still having a problem? it looks to me the new drop / wiring did the trick already.
