And effective... when u say mini disconnects, does the moden us and ds lights cycle?

[hustla_ambition101]

The lights stay constant on mine except for the orange blinker which well always blinks. Is just that pages don't load, downloads drop, streams that are in progress stay streaming, unless the page is refreshed

Nah all the lights are pretty much normal during those mini disconnect times.

100% EXACTLY THIS!!!

When the connection drops my games don't even drop. Downloads drop and webpages don't load but somehow the games keep running which I must thank my lucky stars yes.

[shaq090]

Log into the modem and send me your public ip... ill run a ping test against your default gateway for the ip block u on...

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

http://cloudmonitor.ca.com/en/ping.php

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

so I PM shaq the info thanks gastly369 for that link didn't realize a password from that site would work on my modem.

I guess I wait now and see if shaq could fix this disconnect issue? this would be amazing if it could be done.

[ModMania]

Could you please post the logs on the modem?

[M_2NR]

password doesnt work for me.

Tonight is horrible online. My packet loss on BF4 servers is about 4-6%.

Hold a shot of my Modem info.
Look at those Uncorrectables

How do you have 16 downstreams?
What package/modem are you using?

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

[shaq090]

i have 16 downstream as well with the router i posted before, only 2 upstream though

[ModMania]

Different modems have more downstream... Each channel can do 30Mbs....I'm assuming that's the new moca modem with intel atom processor or a modem with a broadcom processor...the older puma5 modems only have 8 channels

[ModMania]

Still waiting on logs tho


And dem levels kinda low..should ideally be in the 40s....so what may happen is at Peake times the levels will drop a bit and cause the modem to hop over on another channel frequency... That may be causing your downtime

Have the newer moca modems. Same ole 15mbit package here until Flow fixes their chit.

Last night was horrid... Packet losses was around 9% in game. You all notice load times on tuner take a hit also? I notice on some sites, like streaming video on IMDb it's really poor sometimes...

Any difference in usability with the extra downstream channels?
Should I call flow and ask for an upgrade?

was there any recent changes to flow's service? all of a sudden i cant even connect to xbox live unless i put my xbox IP in my DMZ

i not seeing any changes done on Microsoft's side

[S_2NR]

The service certainly went downhill. I don't know if more people are streaming now and more load on the network but during peak hours, things rough

if your current setup works well, as in, you play games and expect port forwarding to work and NAT Type is currently moderate or open, DO NOT update to a MoCA setup as yet. Still awaiting a tech to give me a proper run down on how to setup this modem just for Modem purposes (ideally bridge) and not lose the TV functions.

I forwarded all ports for XBL for the Xbox, connected the Xbox directly to the modem, did so as well, set it up in the DMZ of the modem and still, NAT Type Strict. Did all of the random settings for the Xbox, still Strict. It seems this new modem is quite bleh outside of regular/default settings.

Firewall was even set off, etc. and still... at least my random drops no longer noticeable. Just the odd lag in games and random sticking in streaming.

Boy I feel it's not just me having these "problems", it's just that others in my area eh realise the packet loss occurring and just happy with the bandwidth they sucking/screwing off others. After a while, flow gets fed up and have to balance the node by us. Plus, most people as you may realise have the "beat up but don't complain to the company" attitude like what is discussed in the skybox thread, so... meh. Unless yuh is a game peong, then they'd do something. I at least call and make complaints but if one man in a node of 40 calls... that's a drop in the bucket to flow.

Also, my case may sound exaggerated but it's not that bad for the average user also as youtube, facebook and the usual "average user" websites, works ok generally.
