ive been having problems with my ntl broadband ever since they upgraded it to 4mbit, i cant receive faster speeds than say 200k, sometimes faster, its like im getting extremely high packet loss, if i download something itll go at 20kb, then 10, then 5 then 0 and upto 10 again and keep on doing that.
yday i was getting the full 4mbit and everything was workign fne (for the first time in 2 weeks) i checked my modem power levels and it was as so:
Type : Ambit ETH/USB Combo Cable Modem

Upstream Transmit Power Level : 44.50 dBmv

this morning my connection is buggered again, checking the power levels..
Type : Ambit ETH/USB Combo Cable Modem
Cable modem : Ambit Cable Modem
