DSL guru's? Help me please
Posted: Tue Apr 07, 2009 5:02 pm
For the last few months my DSL modem has been loosing sync with the broadband/internet connection. I have had this same service for 7 years, no issues like this before. Last year I upgraded to the 6mbs service, but as I said, this crap has only been happening for the last few months. The modem is a 2wire modem, the same that I got when I initially signed up for the service...
Bellow is 2 days of the modems log, as you can see, sometimes it looses signal every few minutes. I have tried rebooting the modem w/ no luck. It is driving me absolutely apeshit. I think this is the log that shows what is happening, I have another one that shows that there has been a "portscan" on the firewall after approximately every 5 connection losses. For the money I spend, this is ridiculous. My signal strength is pretty good, I think is said 6dB noise downstream and 13dB upstream, from all I have read this is good to great. I am physically located less than 2 miles from the switch... If anyone knows why this is going on, please let me know.
**Edit** cut most of the log out, because it was the same thing over and over, 22 signal losses in the last two days, total of 6.5 hours of signal lost over the last 12 days, all it 10-20 second intervals. lovely, huh?
Thanks,
Jason
