return path numbers, rcable territory

Does this look a little weird? Factory reset doesn't make any difference.

Cable Signal Details
Forward Path:
Channel Frequency Power SNR BER Modulation
1 633.0 MHz 8.7 dBmV 39.4 dB 0.000 % 256 QAM
2 615.0 MHz 7.8 dBmV 38.9 dB 0.000 % 256 QAM
3 621.0 MHz 8.5 dBmV 39.4 dB 0.000 % 256 QAM
4 639.0 MHz 9.1 dBmV 39.3 dB 0.000 % 256 QAM
5 645.0 MHz 9.3 dBmV 39.4 dB 0.000 % 256 QAM
6 651.0 MHz 9.4 dBmV 39.8 dB 0.000 % 256 QAM
7 657.0 MHz 9.3 dBmV 39.4 dB 0.000 % 256 QAM
8 663.0 MHz 9.2 dBmV 39.4 dB 0.000 % 256 QAM

Return Path:
Channel ID Frequency Power Modulation
2 30.6 MHz 37.5 dBmV 16 QAM
1 38.6 MHz 39.0 dBmV 16 QAM
3 23.7 MHz 37.5 dBmV 16 QAM
0 0.0 MHz 0.0 dBmV QPSK

Thanks!

Those look like levels for an Internet only set up. No cable, no splits nothing but net.

Is anything wrong? No. Lots of signal coming in is all. You're in spec. Your connection can afford lots to go wrong.

Except for what he said.

I don't think there is an amp, but if it is amped... that's bad.

internet ONLY is exactly what it is. no amp, no splitter.

The reason I'm asking is that on occasion I get flaky speeds... 5mbps down (on 30 plan). It's a transient problem that goes away on it's own or by hard resetting the modem.

Otherwise, it's pretty rock solid.

I was looking at the modem diagnostics post and the return path numbers I have vs what they *should* be caught my eye.
