Before:

 

 

 

 

After:

 

 

 

 

Interesting that the downstream attenuation increased by 6.2db? Possible due to the Chorus guy pulling on the cable trying to get more of it out of the conduit?

 

 

 

 

I'm guessing this will increase over time as now I should have a reliable connection that doesn't cut out in the rain.

it is certainly possible that a vdsl modem goes bad and syncs like that.
