there is a tech coming on wednesday actually.
I created this thread because i knew that here i could get a realistic appraisal of what i should be expecting him to check and what i could check myself.

the modem is 3 year old motorola sb5100 which up to now has been fine but it has afterall been on virtually 24/7 for just over 3 years.

i have reconnected the coax at the modem end and tried it with and without the -6db attenuator that was fitted last year to drop my downstream power level to 8db (i was running at 14db).
