"SYNC Timing Synchronization failure - Failed to acquire QAM/QPSK symbol timing" on SB8200 Modem
I've been having intermittent connection issues for the past couple months after 5+ years of no service issues. I can tell looking at my modem that it's the dreaded QAM/QPSK error, but don't think anything looks out of spec on the channels. Haven't changed anything within the house in terms of coax connections either, so would think it maybe has something to do with the drop out to the neighborhood box?
