It's interesting to note that even though I use the same gateway, I have not noticed dropouts like you have. That doesn't mean that they don't happen for me, just that I havn't noticed them, but if I was losing the connection with the same frequency that you seem to be, I suspect that either my son or I would have done so.
Have you looked at the signal report page as presented by the Cable Modem? http://192.168.100.1/RgSignal.asp I get these valies:- Signal To Noise Ratio: 39.0 dB Power Level: 4.9 dBmV btw, seeing that you are on the same class C net, I'd be very interested to discover both the bandwidth offered at the local level and whether T/C charge for the traffic. Care to do an experiment some time? Anybody else on the same class C net? A comparison might well be very instructive! -- Sincerely etc. Christopher Sawtell
