a 38 Mbps in a single 6 MHz channel, mine does 1200
this oldDOCSIS 2.0 has one channel, 6MHz. mine has 32,(v3)
and the IPS charges for bandwidth, by adding or subtracting channels. so pay more get more speed. but yours is 1ch.
mine is 30 times faster, 32ch, than your old v2.
and packet lost is normal, you are confused how cable works.
but yes call the ISP and ask them to tune up your modem cable
the come out and measure the cable curb signal strengths.
and PAD the line down to not over or underdrive the modem
also this is done at the modem POINT . F coax cables.
PAD is a F-conn. attenuator, in many sizes ,1 is best here , tuned.

also learn the PC can be Ethenet wired to modem direct.
for testing.
not told what GOAL or DREAM app fails, a GAME?

Sir i have a motrola sb5100 modem so i upgrade my
Those modems update the firmware automatically. That modem could be as much as 10 years old. As for JTAG upgrade of firmware, you are making this way too hard and expensive. The Jtag is only part of the issue. You have to have an EEPROM flashing machine to connect the cable to and those are not cheap.
Motorola surfboard 5100 garden walled error
Sounds like your modem is in a provisional state. Walled garden is simply a tool to provision a modem..... a way that a cable or ADSL company uses to verify that the equipment is associated with a paying customer. Call your ISP if you are unable to access anything past that page via a browser. Chances are your provisioning record is lost, your modem has changed, there are too many devices connected directly to the modem, or there are other account issues such as nonpay status. Before you call... Check your modem connections, most companies will not allow two IP addresses to be issued to one piece of equipment (modem) without an extra fee, some companies will not allow two devices to be connected to a modem at all. If you have a device connected USB to the modem and another device connected through the ethernet port...disconnect one. I suggest going Ethernet and using a router if you wish to have more than one device connected to your modem. Make sure the modem that worked yesterday is the one you are using today. If you've recently replaced your modem, you may need to call your cable company to register the new modem. One modem = one instance of service.Check your bill due date. If your bill is past due, you may need to satisfy the past due balance before being allowed past the walled garden.
