Re: Upgrade SB5120 to SB5101 Problems Your issue is that your modem is having to transmit WAY outside of the DOCSIS specs. (the 61 db upstream)
For some reason your ISPs headend cant "hear" your modem.
Could be wiring issues inside your house, or cable plant problems outside.
Do you possibly have an amp inside your house (w/o upstream amplification)? |

| I don't think I have an amplifier inside my house - how would I know?
The community I live in has pretty old cable wiring, so it could be the entire community - I snooped on my neighbor's modem and it was sending at 55 dbmV, so I'm leaning toward a site wide issue. |

You are Tx'ing WAY above maximum the DOCSIS spec; something they can't (or at least shouldn't) ignore. |
