12 DB attenuator for Xfinity Enhanced Speed areas
My service area was recently upgraded to the enhanced speed tiers. Where can I acquire a 12 DB PAD (attenuator)? My concern is the UPLOAD & OFDMA.
Channel 1-32 Download channels: -1 to 1 DB.
OFDM is 1 DB for 611 MHZ
OFDM is 3 DB for 803 MHZ
UPLOAD 49-50 DB for 4 channels
OFDMA 57 DB
Xfinity my modem has not been rebooting so that's good.

You don't need an attenuator ! The upstream power is already too high (out of spec on the upstream OFDMA channel) ! An overall attenuator pad will only make it higher / worse. You need to have the attenuation reduced / improve the connection quality. It's a problem just waiting to happen ! You may even need to use a drop amp with an active return to lower that upstream power.
