| 645548 | 2008-03-08 07:36:00 | Had a similar problem with my connection last year, up and down , slow then ultra fast - wouldn't stay stable . The guy from Telstra came attached his box of tricks - and a few ewwwws and arwhhhs thats not right - and he adjusted the settings and that fixed the problem . It was something to do with the frequency being to high, and causing the modem to cut out, the db rating was up around 60-70 . After adjustment Here are the settings today ( . imagef1 . net . nz/files/Modem1204572430 . jpg" target="_blank">www . imagef1 . net . nz) - they do change slightly all the time, but the Tech guy said the Signal to Noise Ratio should be in the Low 40's at the most, lower the better, last night it was around 41 . The address is http://192 . 168 . 100 . 1 Why isnt the modem self selecting the right bands to use? software fault? |

The story I got from the Telstra Tech was ---- Telstra had made some changes to the Cable connections, upgraded equipment or something like that. At the time my Modem had a filter of some kind attached because the original signal was WAY to strong and would cause problems, when they "upgraded" the filter was now causing problems - when he removed it, the setting were all " up the wop" - so he reset it to the required settings and apart from the odd outage( which any service gets) its been fine. |
