Re: Cable Modem Signal Levels

Nice one Ig.

You can have Ambits at a transmit power of 61 too, and it's only Pace 1000 and 2000 series boxes that go > 58, Samsungs and 4000s don't.

Also, viewing the modem directly can only give you half the picture, each parameter you read there has an equivalent at the UBR for the opposite direction

CM
DS receive power
DS SNR
US transmit

UBR
US receive power
US SNR
DS transmit (although this is a totally pointless figure)

That gives us five meaningful parameters of which three are readable off your modem - the other two are readable by NTL TS.
