Our network recently started to experience problems with speed over the internet. The COMCAST SMC device would also be inaccessible due to an error message stating "Access error: data follows, can't get memory".
We re-boot the SMC and access speeds are back to normal and the SMC is accessible. After a period of time (30 min to 1 1/2 hr) we're back to the bad behavior. Comcast stated that the SMC was "not locking properly". They then used ping somehow to determine the speed was poor, had us pull the network cable and announced that the ping was now fine, so according to them the problem is on our end. My question is, is there any free software that will "find" which device is going bad and sending out bad packets, if that is the problem? James E Harvey Hanover Shoe Farms, Inc.
