The Warning seems to indicate something with the power that the ISP should take a look at. Any Criticals, Errors or Warnings seen in the event logs needs to be reviewed and resolved by the ISP. Indicates a signal issue on the ISP line up to the modem.
Also the internal speed test maybe picking a speed test server that is busier or not as accurate as other speed test services located near you. Ya I wish we could pick the servers with in the modem.
As long as your getting to spec speeds from a wired PC thru the modem, you'll be fine.

The Warning seems to indicate something with the power that the ISP should take a look at. Any Criticals, Errors or Warnings seen in the event logs needs to be reviewed and resolved by the ISP. Indicates a signal issue on the ISP line up to the modem.
Also the internal speed test maybe picking a speed test server that is busier or not as accurate as other speed test services located near you. Ya I wish we could pick the servers with in the modem.
As long as your getting to spec speeds from a wired PC thru the modem, you'll be fine.
Hi,
Yes, I showed the power level to the ISP and all they told me was that everything is within proper tolerances on their end. Thank you for the help. It is much appreciated.
