Hi

You might need to force the 20 meg config.

what is the modem flashed with? if its infinite there is a signal level, check that. your looking for a d/s power of about -4-5 i think. try it without the splitter anyway. also, if its infinite f/w you can have a look at what config your using or, check the logs

you need to go to 192.168.100.1 and have a look at the internal webpage of the modem. it will tell you what firmware it is inm there
