Re: New upload speeds and Network Management

I wish modems have a way to reboot them from 192.168.100.1, i have to go downstairs and yank the power cable out for 30secs. Would be easier to see if there's a new config for my modem.

Re: New upload speeds and Network Management

When I log on to 192.168.100.1 under the configuration tab I have the option to restart the modem, what modem have you got?

Re: New upload speeds and Network Management

One really good option here is to not obsess over an upgrade you may not get for several months by restarting your cable modem on a regular basis and to simply carry on with life as per normal.

It's likely that VM will force all the modems to reconnect soon-ish after upgrading each card anyway. In addition if you aren't on an upstream channel with a symbol rate of 5120ksym/s - you should be able to see this from your cable modem - you aren't getting upgraded yet, it's a prerequisite.

What modulation?

Someone may well have screwed up.

EDIT: Ah you're on 10Mbit. You guys can feasibly be on 2560ksym/s, 20 and 50Mbit certainly not.

My mic always appears on due to the fact it's a permanently wired turtle beach head set.

How do I see the symbol rate? I am guessing my modem is hiding it. Is scientific atlanta.
