to your complaint. i work for charter and you dont always get 3 meg speeds you get up to 3 meg but it is not guaranteed and your router can also slow you down. alot of people dont always tell that they have 4 computers going at one time and slowing the speed down. also it makes charter look bad and i have to stand up for them because they pay my bills and feed my kids and i also work on it everyday. if you get a tech out there to your house ask him what your transmit levels are behind your modem because a modem cuts off when it gets to 58. you want the upstream transmit level to be between 40 and 53 that a good number to shoot for if it higher he needs to figure out why. tell me what type of modem you have and i can tell you how to look inside your modem from your computer to see what your transmit levels are.
see yaaaaaaa |

| reply to BinaryXtreme to be honest with you you cant replace the amp and it work if there is a problem before the amp. your modem should be on a line by itself going to a two way splitter with one leg of the split feeding your modem and the other leg feeding your tvs. if you have a house amp your modem should be before it and your tvs should be feed from house amp. other than that there is a module inside of amp at road changing that and having a problem before it does not resolve your issue. i would not let the tech leave until it was fixed and i would deinitely contact a superviser in the field over your area. |

| Had the techs out again today and still horrible speeds so I went to BB and bought a new Linksys Modem, got it provisioned and bypassed my router totally and still having problems. Tuesday will be the 9th week.
