Lately I have been noticing that my noise margin along with my max rate drops very low and then slowly recovers(recovers over maybe 30 minutes or less? Not sure since I haven't seen it from the start of the drop). This has been happening not too often, but often enough for me to notice it a lot. I guess that may be the cause of my random link retrains every once and awhile. Any reason why? Also, I noticed that if I move my gateway about an inch, it's attenuation goes up/max rate goes slightly down for a few days until it goes back to normal. One time I had a link retrain, my profile dropped to about 4400 Kbps upload until I rebooted again.
I wonder if my gateway is going bad lol. Especially with those millions of corrected blocks problem I get every few months that requires me to reboot so it doesn't fill up my error table.
Should be noted that I have seen my noise margin drop to maybe 10 dB(maybe less and I just didn't see it). An hour or so ago I saw it down to about 16 dB with a max rate of 52k which is probably near the end of when it's recovering. It then always slowly goes up a .5 db or so every UV Realtime refresh until it nears the regular amount where it takes about two refreshes to get .1 or .2 of a dB.
