Access the cable modem statistics page at 192.168.100.1 and check signal
to noise ratios and signal levels. The cable modem faq at
www.dslreports.com will provide the basis for determining if there are
line quality issues from the signal levels.

Finally had a chance Sunday to do this. Stats are:

Downstream
SNR: 36 dB
Power Level: -1 dBmV

Upstream
Power Level: 56 dBmV

According to the FAQ, only the Upstream Power Level number looks bad.
Guess I'll start looking for the right kind of splitter to feed the
cable modem, and do some rewiring.
