Intermittent connectivity issues

any thoughts on the power levles of downstream channels? or the power on the downstream OFDM channels? Look at all the uncorrected codewords.

The Downstream power is a tad on the high side but should be o/k. The uncorrectable codewords are very low with respect to the total unerrored codewords ! Are you actually experiencing any connectivity problems ?

Thank you for he response. I  am experiening intermittent connectivity issues on m ywired and wirelss devices and on my X1 system, I get the error code RDK-03033 multiple times daily. I do not get TV connectivity error codes on my other non-X1 devices.

Are there any modem RF signal error / event log entries being shown ? If so, please post them as well.

Recent logs (MAC addresses removed) and trimmed for redundancy.

Even though the signal stats looked o/k at that snapshot in time, the error log entries confirm that something is going on. Perhaps there is noise ingress into the line(s) somewhere.

 

There are other signal stat figures that can't be read by the modem. They are the "Upstream Rx Power" (Upstream Receive Power Level), the "Upstream SNR Ch." (Upstream Signal To Noise Ratio), and the "Upstream ICFR" (In Channel Frequency Response). These are as equally important in diagnosing connectivity issues as are the modem's stats.


I'm going to escalate your issue to the Comcast corporate employees that are available to these boards. They can check the CMTS (Cable Modem Termination System) for any real time degradation and / or error reports, see your node / cable plant and modem health, and see whether or not everything is in the green zone. They can also see a history plot for the modem and poll for those upstream receive signal stats.

You should get a reply here in your topic. Good luck !

Hello BrianIngersoll, thank you for taking the time out of your day to post on our forum. I have had this issue several times before so I know how frustrating it can be to lose internet and cable TV at the same time with nothing but this error message to blame. The good thing is the problem can be fixed, in my case the tech came out and swapped the cable outside and I haven't seen the error since then. Maybe your fix will be the same, in any case I can get this resolved for you. To get started please send me a private message with your full name and account number by clicking on my name (ComcastAmir) and then click "Send a message".
