Cable signal levels for all docsis cable modems require to be within the acceptable level for the modem operate properly.
Tx rx snr cable modem.
This is the amount of signal received by the modem from the transmitter in the cable company head end.
Ideally the rx level should be in the range of 18 to 25 dbm.
Cable modem signal levels for voip to work consistently well the connection to the cable modem should be stable and within certain signal db parameters.
Check the led status at front panel of the idirect modem with the technician rx tx net.
Are the tx rx and lan cables connected to the idirect modem.
Rf mac mac address of the cable rf interface.
When an s card is used and spectrum groups are assigned cnr is reported.
If the rx level is under 25 dbm the signal to noise ratio snr is.
Typically cable modems show the downstream snr the upsteram snr can only be calculated at the remote end of the coax usually at the node.
Ip address ip address assigned to the modem not the cpe.
Try to ping the modem remotely.
The best way to determine if there are any problems with the cable signal levels that could affect the modems connectivity is to view the cable modem s signal power levels by accessing an interior screen.
The server modems normally transmit at 13 dbm by default.
Just remember that higher snr means cleaner signal.

This ip address 40 77 167 235 has been blocked for unusual usage patterns.
The rx level is the power in dbm of the received signal.
A value well over 40 may mean you have too much power.
The three signal levels that need to be within the acceptable level are downstream power snr signal to noise ratio and upstream power.
Downstream rx receive power level.
For all modems docsis 3 0 3 1.
The tx level is the power in decibels per milliwatt dbm at which a modem transmits its signal.
Dns name dns name for the cable modem not the dynamic dns name for the cpe.
If you can ping the modem then telnet into the modem check the rx snr value along with arp table to check if lan is connected to the idirect modem.
