CM1100 - 3 Day Old, keeps disconnection with high upstream power, using Spectrum
Just got my modem 3 days ago and set it up. Had a Spectrum tech come out yesterday and took out extra splitters and checked all my signals. I don't think it made much a difference. My upstream power hovers around 51-52 dB so any flucutations to that spikes it over 53 dB and causes a T3 error and disconnect.
Almost every Spectrum rep wants to blame my for using my own equipment, even though I had this problem with my old modem and bought this modem to upgrade. I just had it re-provisioned this morning after a factory reset of the modem and the issue is still happening.
My coax is running straight from a grounding box to my outlet, then to a splitter that goes to my HD-DVR box and my modem. There was am amp there before that the tech took out yesterday; he said it was bad. However, before the tech visit and after, I did not see a noticable change in upstream power.
Is there anything I can do? Would exchanging the modem for another CM1100 have any difference? I'm not sure it would, as when there is connection, the model works great, but the disconnects happen sometimes every minute.

Have the ISP check the signal and line quality UP to the modem.
Be sure there are no coax cable line splitters in the between the modem and ISP service box.
Be sure your using good quality RG6 coax cable up to the modem.
Be sure to power OFF the modem for 1 minute them back ON.
