Superhub : 100M upgrade - power levels?

[Bluestraw]

I just had my 50M upgraded to 100M today, and a new superhub fitted. Before the engineer left, I asked if my downstream power was a bit high but was told that 'below 12 is fine'. I has previously read that 7 was the recommended limit - do these look ok, as I have a high SNR? Appreciate the view of the experts!

7 is fine. The official spec defines +15 as the limit but various different people (and indeed different parts of Virgin Media) use different numbers that define a smaller "optimal" range.

Thank you - appreciate it.
