Last summer I remember smelling what seemed like birthday candles.. Then my cable went out.. The coax cable coming in from the street was melted like you wouldn't believe. I have the video somewhere. I cut it and put on a compression fitting.. very very carefully - even tho cable lines are relatively harmless, that old wire scared the logic out of me. I wore mechanics gloves. heh...
If your cable modem is unable to obtain a downstream signal, chances are you have a physically messed up cable line.. disconnection.. fire.. whatever.
If its the upstream thats failing to obtain a lock... thats because you have too many splits before your cable modem and its 'screaming' its digital lungs out at -58dbmV (FCC regulation) to try to contact your provider. The upstream can be a PITA.
Thank you very much Nibbley. What was wrong with the 21907 posted earlier? I know that the lockscreenNonEA folder was missing from my tp2 kitchen. That was a blast to the past (to see the 6.1 lock screen).
