Modem Packetloss and Disconnects

Hello,

I recently upgraded our modem and other xfinity devices in the home and our packetloss/disconnects are more noticeable now. A modem restart does resolve the issue for a short while, but I am finding it necessary to restart it 2x a day and I need to avoid being disconnected.

 

I have been running pingplotter on and off over the last couple weeks when I notice issues. The packetloss always starts on the 2nd hop and continues down from there. Screenshot (4)_LI.jpg

Problem solved: Tech came out and replaced connectors on the phone pole and at my amplifier/splitter and terminated any unused ports on amplifier/splitter to eliminate the signal loss/line noise.

Can't see your pics. Since you are a new poster, they need to be approved by a Forum Admin. That could take some time. In the interim, you could try hosting them at one of those free third-party pic hosting sites like Imgur or Photobucket and post the link to them here.
