This problem never seems to go away.
I just replaced my Arris SB6141 which was starting to lock up on a regular basis. In its place is a Zoom 5345.
I have a very strong signal on all channels now. Over 40db SNR downstream with a nearly non-existen BER. Power on upstream hovers between 45 and 50db. All 8x2 channels are connected.
I have tested both through my router and directly connected to the modem. Every evening speeds are incredibly slow. Max 5-6Mbps is common. Often worse. Testing was done using the Mediacom speediest page. These are the same speeds I was seeing on the Arris.
This must be a Mediacom bandwidth issue. This problem has been happening off and on for months. When will this ever end?
MAC on the new modem: 94:fb:b2:9c:bf:f1
