iv havent had internet access for seven days and now for no reason it just comes back up. its weird. my cable being down accompanied with girlfriend and school has kept me away from everybody and the last post i made about transparent color in paint was from school. i was doing a powerpoint and needed the info fast. thank you to everybody who replied. oh and i got us a new member. his name is luikang (sp?). he works with me and hopefully he'll stick around.

arrrgh.....

my stupid cable keeps cutting off. ive got a tech coming out wed. between 1 and 5 who can hopefully solve my problem. all of a sudden i'll just lose the signal and the send/recieve lights will start flashing. i checked all connections and everything on my comp and nothing could be causing it to do it on my end. there has been some new construction going on around me here lately and i dont know if maybe that has something to do with it or what.

Have you tried looking at the config page to see what kind of levels you're getting?

192.168.100.1

Once you bring up the config page, click on the signal tab and make sure downstream signal to noise ratio is above 30 db and your upstream power level is between 35 & 50 db...

This means you're not getting enough signal to the modem...have you changed anything recently, like moving the modem into a new room or putting a splitter in line?

TheAntipop · Post by **TheAntipop** » Sun May 12, 2002 10:03 am

nope not at all

Is the cable line outside buried, or from a pole?

TheAntipop · Post by **TheAntipop** » Mon May 13, 2002 7:05 am

that is what his uncle told him too. his uncle thinks it is because they may have too many t.v.'s on that same cable line. i dunno.

but he(theantipop) has still got to call them to get them to come back to his house...*ahem* he keeps forgetting...
