Download/Upload speed is dropping to 10mbps up/down daily

user-v5
I'm here a lot

I am on the 500mbps internet service tier.  My internet connection was frequently dropping for 5-10 seconds, about 1-3 times a day. Download/Upload speed was also dropping down to 10mbps across all devices, with high latency.  I replaced the cable modem(CODA -4582 with CODA -4582 v1A and firmware v7.1.1.37), and that took care of the frequent drops. But the issue with speed dropping down to 10mbps and high latency is still happening. Rebooting the modem resolves the issue temporarily, but it always returns.

 

I am running my modem in bridge mode with an wrt3200acm router. I ruled out my router by rebooting the router only(saw the same speed on my devices after reboot), trying to download a file directly on the router via a shell and watching the speed, and plugging in the wan ethernet cable into an old router I had laying around and using that instead(same speed). I have tightened and swapped every cable involved in the chain.

 

My home phone modem is in the same room, so there is a two port splitter(rogers provided Antronix splitter) between the wall and the cable modem. I unfortunately cannot move the cable modem or home phone modem to any other location in the house.

 

I am not sure if it is still a modem issue, or a signal issue.  Can someone confirm? The same thing is happening right now, and this is what I am seeing (updated signal logs after cable modem reboot are in the next post):

Just rebooted the cable modem, and my connection is back to normal with 742.8 mbps download, 22 mbps upload (according to rogers speed test). This is what the signal readings after like after the cable modem(they look the same as before the reboot?):

Re: Download/Upload speed is dropping to 10mbps up/down daily

Bridge_broken
I've been around

I'm having this exact same issue. Rogers technical support told me to try new cables but that didn't solve the issue. It's very frustrating..

Re: Download/Upload speed is dropping to 10mbps up/down daily

My issue still isn't resolved. I am going to try swapping modems again. I have been very patient, but I have had enough. If this issue is not resolved, I am going to be moving over to bell fibe.

Re: Download/Upload speed is dropping to 10mbps up/down daily

Hello, @user-v5.

 

I appreciate you rejoining the thread; it may not be modem related issue. Have you worked with tech support in the past six months? 

 

We can investigate your speed dropping to 10 Mbps concern. Please send us a private message at @CommunityHelps. You can find details about our private messaging in this blog.

 

Cheers,

RogersMoin

By any chance, are you running OpenWrt 22.03 on your WRT3200ACM?
