Re: Modem developing an affinity for 1 of 4 downstream channels

FWIW, the UCD (Upstream Channel Descriptor) information that the modem needs to know in order to establish the frequency of the return / upstream channel to talk back to the CMTS on is contained on that favorite channel. It is my understanding the the UCD data is not present on all the forward / downstream channels on a system, just certain ones.
