Re: [TWC] need help troubleshooting connection

Assuming the uncorrectable packets dont occur at large numbers at intervals at the time u not monitoring downstream snr, there could be some noise that occurs at specific interrvals here and there but its doubtful

That's true. One of the problems in understanding this area of arcane modem behavior is that Broadcom and TI are very closemouthed about what time periods/number of packets they average over, etc. I have only found one very brief reference in a Cisco manual, and that referred to upstream measurements where the same technique is used.
