Intermittent Packet Drops and Downstream Power Level Issues
Hi,
I currently have a Netgear CM3000 and have been getting regular packet drops and disconnects for the past couple of weeks. No changes have been made on my side since the last time a technician was here to fix a previous power level issue from an amp down the street (about a year ago). The modem is reporting poor downstream power level and constant US profile change messages in the log plus regular T3 time-outs. I have reset everything and rechecked that every connection is tight.
