Random Packet Loss with change of LOF

Seems the forum is abandoned and full of spam, what a pity.

I guess we can't hope to get any kind of support here anymore.

Anyway, I found out that I was having random packet loss (about 1/3000 icmp) because I changed the LOF from 1150 to 1400.

Running latest 2.0.14 FW.

Was part of a configuration to avoid interference with Cable TV, disabling also D-Low.

But then I got the right splitter and re-enabled D-Low but I kept the LOF at 1400.

Anyone else notice a big drop in performance enabling encryption? I was getting around 900 Mbps and enabled encryption and it dropped to about 530 Mbps. I did notice that I don't seem to be getting the random disconnects anymore after going back to 1150 LOF.

Yes, all of them enabled

All of the encryption are enabled? what about all three MOCA? I am pretty sure I did that and MOCA stopped working altogether.

I think so, not using them here at the moment.

All enabled and with encryption custom password.

The ECB7250 is almost identical but the WebUI is different and missing some stuff.

Post a screenshot of the relevant configuration pages (hide the password).

@A Noid wouldn't know sorry

I have the same issue of random packet loss with the new one.

Much less but it's there.

Seems there's something which is interfering and the platform itself is weak and can't handle it.

No matter what is the brand, goCoax or else, these adapters have a design fault.

Anyway, except the sporadic lost packet, I got over 2 Gbit/s which nothing else can do it and it works pretty well even if not good as it should and could.

So not much to complain other than the missing technical support (and a better alternative).

I have been having random disconnects as well. I have an xfinity Modem/router that supports MOCA I disabled it thinking it was interfering. I noticed its settings at set to 1150. Should I re-enable it and set my gocoax 2500d devices to the same? I am completely clueless to this.

Going back to 1150 LOF mitigated the issue but didn't solve it.

Seems after I while I've ended up in the same situation as many others.

I also had a lot of icmp response time fluctuations, much more than when it was new.

Replaced with the only other alternative, same platform.

Same speed but the phy does link a bit higher, from 2900 to 3000.

Works fine now and icmp response times are steady like never before.

It seems like you're having some issues with random packet loss after changing the LOF to 1400 while running firmware 2.0.14. Since you re-enabled D-Low and got a new splitter, it might be worth resetting the LOF back to 1150 to see if the issue resolves, as the packet loss could be related to this configuration change. Testing with different settings while monitoring your packet loss could help narrow down the cause.
