Hello Tony,


........... He also said my SNR was kind of low which I'd like
to see for myself.

Do you have a router? I just point my browser at the
router's dq address and it returns all its measured
connection diagnostics, as a web page....... upstream/
/downstream connection speeds, transmit/receive power
levels, SNR's, round trip ping time to my ISP, etc.

It is presently showing.

Reserved Bandwidth (kbit/s) up/down = 288/2272.

Output Power (dBm) up/down = 12.0/18.0.

Attenuation (dB) up/down = 26.0/41.0.

Noise Margin (dB) up/down = 28.0/20.5.

Ping Time (20 bytes) = 14mS.


Interesting. I don't know if my router (SMC Barricade) has that feature,
have to check. The Westell Wirespeed modem is a separate box and AFAIR
not very "talkative" to end customers.
