CM1100 (Xfinity) downstream light flashing yet connected?
I recently moved back into my home office for work and have noticed something odd that I'd seen months back but never paid attention to. I now suspect that it's been going on for several months now r...
Heh, I was wondering about power, as some values I'd seen in others' posts weren't nearly that high. I'll give this a try first before I call them.
Why NG has specs on power levels.
Let us know how it goes.
Quick update while I wait for a -6dbm attenuator.....
I happened to find a -3.5dbm attenuated splitter lying around and plugged it in. My averages have dropped to just over 7 now, and I think the errors may be starting to be less frequent. There have still been a few today but not as many.
I'll post an update once the full one arrives tomorrow.

OK, just plugged in the 6db in-line (more like a cap) attenuator and power levels for the +/- 7 seem to be within spec, please see if the rest looks good to you.
I don't have anything to report yet in the Event Log and so far no flashing downstream, but it's only been like 5 minutes. I'll be keeping an eye on it here.
