What is an acceptable SNR level/ power level fluctuation

[Ballgirl]

I've been having problems with my connection for a couple of months now, intermittant loss of service. 3rd engineer is coming to look at the service today.

What is considered an acceptable fluctuation in downstream SNR and power level? Should SNR fluctuate between 36db to 28db and power -3dBmv and -6dBmv. The SNR changes quite significantly, could this be causing the problem?

[xocemp]

Downstream dropping below 29db and raising to 36 is cause for concern and would require a tech to investigate.

[Ballgirl]

My connection is working ok at the moment but a few refreshes do show fluctuations in SNR. What would cause this? problem with the cabling? problem with the cabinet in the street?

Downstream Receive Power Level : -4.4 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 36.1 dB

Downstream Receive Power Level : -4.3 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 33.3 dB

Downstream Receive Power Level : -4.6 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 35.1 dB

Downstream Receive Power Level : -4.3 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 33.8 dB

Downstream Receive Power Level : -4.3 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 32.1 dB

Downstream Receive Power Level : -4.5 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 31.3 dB

Downstream Receive Power Level : -4.0 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 31.7 dB

Downstream Receive Power Level : -4.4 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 30.5 dB

Downstream Receive Power Level : -4.3 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 36.0 dB

It could be a modem problem, and in my case a year ago it was. You should get a tech called out to check it out. He will most likely adjust the levels. If that doesn't fix it, then a new modem will almost definitely fix it.

[Ballgirl]

I've got an engineer coming today between 12pm and 4pm. Not turned up yet.

This is the third engineer to come about my connection issues. The first one did change my modem so its be bad luck to have a new one pack in already.

I'm experiencing high packet loss today:

Could be an issue at the cab, or it could be the cable itself. It may also just be the signal levels causing it. Make sure he doesn't leave until you have checked the levels yourself. If you think it's not right, insist he keeps trying.

Downstream +/- 3dBmV
SNR: 35dB or more (and stable)
Upstream: 40dBmV-52dBmV

[xocemp]

To rule out the router causing packet loss, remove it before he/she comes.
Best still remove it now, do you still get packet loss?
If your not convinced with what he/she says or does then ask him/her to call their support, who are 2nd line.

I think you'll find the packet loss to be FEC related and if not FEC it will be the drop cable, between the cab and the modem.
As I said if he calls his support, they will ping the modems HFC IP address and check for FEC errors and advise from their findings.

Engineers just been, same guy that came out first. This time he's changed the cable splitter that feeds tv and broadband signal. Removed 2 of the 4 attenuators that engineer 2 put in. Also did something in the Cab, said he moved my cable up. He's also ordering a new cable to be fitted outside.
