Power Levels

Click for full size
Click for full size
So until the other night comcast has been on a roll w/ a solid connection since out last modem replacement/visit. A few nights ago we started to get extremely high pings. ran ping tests to google.com x 100 and would avg 32 ms and spike to 2387 ms. This makes any online gaming impossible. The spikes seem to occur during peak transmissions (not time of day but when either sending alot of info or recieving alot of info). What I mean by this is I play WoW I can sit and take fine in General/Trade/BNet/Whispers etc. but if I engage in a fight the spikes begin to happen. If in a raid its completely unplayable. Nearly every time we have had a tech out they have sd that its the power levels. They are due to show up today and would like some talking points or to know if Im completely wrong

Its a Ubee Hardware Version : 1.47.3

Your upstream is on the high end, almost out of spec.

Thats what I thought, when I had a tech out about a yr ago he sd that when it gets closer to 50 then you will see probs. I was @ 47-49 then
