Re: [cwe-lug] coax cable tester (was: Need help using ...)

Downstream level might be a little high (optimum is I believe between -5 
and -15 Dbmv) however, under your ariginal configuration you would have 
had a splitter and some length of cable that would have put you close. 
Does it say "locked" under downstream? If so, look under "Operation 
Configuration" and make sure that the "maximum number of CPE's" is at 
least 1. Let me know what you come up with.

I found the IP for the cable modem:
If you are using an Ambit cable modem (Dark Grey with 6 green 
triangular light on front) go to http://192.168.100.1/
the username and password are both: root
You can then look at its status. First up, click on downstream and see 
if it says the downstream is locked.
Let me know if you have a different type of modem.

These are the power levels for mine:
(Note this is without a splitter.)
Upstream Transmit Power Level: 46.75 dBmV
Downstream Receive Power Level: 2.4 dBmV
Downstream SNR: 34.8 dB
