Unicast Maintenance Ranging attempted - No response - Retries exhausted

I have been having connection issues with my internet and have had technicain out on 4/9/2020 and they said no issue detected. The replaced the ends of the cables and tested the signal. They also installed a "filter" which has a ground he said and removed the grounding block that was there. No splitters are in play as I only have internet. Before the tech came out I was getting t3 and t4 timeouts in my modem log. I cleared my event log and I am already getting these again and having issues.

I have also battled this for sometime I am on my second new modem coming from a motorola sb6183, purchased a netgear modem and returned and now I am using a MB7621. It is such a huge pain to call cupport and get the run around and then to have a tech come out and say there is not a problem.

The upstream power is approaching the high end of being in spec but it may be intermittently fluctuating even higher to out of spec levels. That can cause random disconnects, spontaneous re-booting of the modem, speed, packet loss, and latency problems.

 

If there is nothing that can be done to improve the connection / obtain more wiggle room, you have no choice but to get the techs involved again until it is fixed properly.

 

Bear in mind that if the premises facing techs can not find or fix a problem at your home, it is they who are responsible for escalating it to their line / network / maintenance dept. techs. The problem may lie beyond your home in the local neighborhood infrastructure somewhere but it is their S.O.P. to start at the home.

Good luck with it !

I really appreciate your response but how do I make that happen? Keep trying to tell them it is a bigger issue and hope they take the time to do it? That's what I have been doing wish there was someone that could see my logs, understand it and put it through to the right person.
