While browsing the Cox page I noticed the rates were much lower than what I'm currently paying, so I chose the 500/10 2 year rate contract which turns out to be 20/month cheaper than what I'm currently paying for 300/10.
No detected packet loss tonight for the first time in the last 2 weeks at this very moment of 2am. Yet I am showing a lot of uncorrectables since the modem has been left on over a day. Here are the logs first.
Signal and uncorrectables:
And current upload signal:
Is channel 159 (other) supposed to be -51 db? My OFDM PLC channel is roughly the same as my other channels.

Does the OFDM signal change when you get packet loss?

1:20am, everything is fine, whatever it was must have been resolved, at least for now. Seems the connection is more agreeable with only the -3db attenuator installed. No uncorrectables at this time, no dynamic range window violations in the log except for the one from the earlier screenshot.
Didn't matter prior if there was no attenuator installed at all when the packet loss was occurring. I wonder if someone was doing late night backups for a period of time and overloading the node I share with them? - WiderMouthOpen3 years agoEsteemed Contributor II
How is your downstream OFDM channel(159) now? It should be -10 to +5dB. It was showing -48 with no SNR lock which probably means the signal for that channel is too weak.

It's always been like that, I have no idea why.

I don't know what you mean by that, are you talking about channel 159? As for all the other upstream/downstream, nothing changed when I seen massive packet loss. What should the channel 159 look like?
I switched to a -3db attenuator, here's what it looks like so far today. I'll check again later when the problems usually occur.
