Hi Everyone,
Maybe you can help me?
I am on blueyonder 4mb - Liverpool 17 - XP Pro, direct ethernet connection to modem. Firewall off, no spyware or other programs running. MTU = 1500.
I can download from US servers at 2mb - 4mb at all times...
Websites don't load because of intermittent packed loss at all times of day, including with STB unplugged.
These are my modem levels: [nb. I have already had a new cable modem installed last week.]
Downstream Value
Frequency 339000000 Hz
Signal To Noise Ratio 41.5 dB
Power Level 6.1 dBmV ----------- I have also tried with a 3db attenuator
The Downstream Power Level reading is a snapshot taken at the time this page was requested. Please Reload/Refresh this Page for a new reading
Upstream Value
Channel ID 3
Frequency 34000000 Hz
Power 47.0 dBmV

I always get packet loss somewhere, often at the beginning.
I have spoken to tech support in Liverpool, Scotland and India and have got the following responses:
a. Cable modem faulty.
b. New cable being laid in your area today! :erm:
c. Computer faulty (tried two others and linux and safe mode)
d. Known fault 'in area'
e. 'There are no faults in your area'
Don't know what to believe!
Only thing I can offer is that I'm on a 'new' IP address beginning 77 and that the problems started after 'routine maintenance' in my area last week, which led to loss of connectivity for 1 hour.
BY CS told me they have ran out of IP addresses.
ps. Teleport has also been intermittently inaccessible. I have checked cable connections (which are 3 years old) and they look tight... I have had a new STB as well as cable modem (SB5100)
Any help appreciated as tech aren't helping much...

Here is a tracert to nildram too and some modem log info:
Forgot to mention that the lights on the cable modem go out sometimes. The same as on the modem they replaced.
