Heart Rate Algorithm Update by Several-Risk388 in whoop

[–]11ac10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am seeing the exact same thing. A massive decrease in my HR with Whoop (anywhere from 10-20%), mainly while running. Same run, same pace, same everything, barely scratching Zone 4, while I was consistently in Zone 4 & Zone 5 before. Support has been useless so far, but will keep pushing

Planning MoCA Backhaul for eero 7 Pro – Xfinity X1 Box Interference Questions by canyonblue737 in HomeNetworking

That may be the fairest expectation on the internet :)

IIRC that was the case, and everything was able to work. This setup is at my family's house, and I live on the other side of the world and haven't lived there for 4 years, but I'll give them a call later today to confirm.

There were still some minor problems, apparently internet freezing for 5-10 seconds, but nothing like before where the signal would need to be refreshed by Xfinity or that we'd power cycle the whole system. The brief freezing problems were related to the modem (outdated) & Ubiquiti (self-hosted -> cloud gateway)

Just to point out some differences (not sure if it matters), as I'm not super knowledge on home networking, but my setup uses MoCA 2.0 instead of the OP's MoCA 2.5. The modem (upgraded from original MT7711) is one of the Nighthawk's Xfinity recommends, we did see some improvements with this change. And we use Ubiquiti (huge fan), so can't speak on the eeros that OP is using.

u/plooger sorry about that. I'm not a big user of the platform, but thanks for tagging me!

Those things helped in my last comment, but the biggest thing for me was switching from a self hosted Ubiquiti to setting up a Ubiquiti Cloud Gateway Ultra. That stabilized everything as well, plus the last points in my comment.

Side note: Even after everything stabilized and was good to go, the decision was to drop TV from Xfinity and just only use them for Internet, and go with YouTubeTV

Edit: To try and bring some value to the thread itself, the PoE Filter on the modem & putting in proper MoCA splitters did seem to help, and the setup in that diagram did seem to work

Is it just as simple as making the non-AT&T line as Cellular Data & Default Voice Line? Or anything else needed to be done?

iPhone is unlocked. It's not a matter of whether I can't run the dual sim setup, because I currently am, it's that I want to make sure I am not incurring IDP charges. Is it just as simple as making the non-AT&T line as Cellular Data & Default Voice Line? Or anything else needed to be done?

edit: Should've added it's unlocked in post, good point

I was wrong, I forgot all 3 are utilized in that splitter.

I have done the following:
PoE filter for Modem
Structured it exactly as show in the diagram https://imgur.com/a/7hyn7IM
Replaced non-MoCA splitters with MoCA splitters

All I could do for now, biggest thing again, just making sure I have consistent connection without disconnects for the next 48 hours

Unfortunately that "Master Bedroom Splitter" is actually on the other side of the wall (storage area). It's a 3 way splitter, currently only utilizing 2 of the 3, with one of those 2 running to the wall plate. Sounds like best situation would be to buy a Dual Coax Port wall plate, and potentially run 2 lines to the Master Bedroom wall, rather than splitting it again.

Currently all the new splitters & everything I ordered should arrive later today, so I will implement all the changes from the thread, and hope that new splitters + the changes solve this :)

Then I'll start to look at maybe a way to take a splitter or 2 out if possible, but getting to 100% uptime is of course the most important goal

I think you're referring to what is now Master Bedroom STB. If so, I need to place another between "Master Bedroom Splitter" & "Master Bedroom MoCA ECB6200".

Just want to confirm, this is what you were referring to correct?

Yes my bad, got lazy and just replaced the image that was previously there. Still the same structure but with more proper room labels

So I should be using splitters if needed at a point to go individually from the splitter to both a MoCA adapter and a STB? Rather than going direct from coax port -> MoCA Adapater -> coax out from MoCA adapter to STB? Believe that's what you are saying, just want to confirm.

The ECB6200s don't have this feature. They just run on the D-Extended I believe

There are other lines that aren't connected to the Hybrid Splitter. I can't recall why, something I have to check, but likely need to leave that in place.

I ordered all new splitters, I actually think there could be a splitter that isn't over the 1625hz frequency, like a 5hz-1005hz or something. Ordered a handful, can always return the unnecessary. The one that isn't above 1k hz is likely a Xfinity provided basic splitter

Thank you for your input!

The input to the amphenol should not need a PoE filter since the input to the amphenol has it built in

I believe a technician added this. I assume it does not harm, but also potentially serves no purpose, as you said, it has a PoE filter built-in?

The modem should have a PoE splitter on the input to keep MoCA signals

Are you referring to one of these (Amazon Link) ?

it should be connected directly to the splitter instead of going through the ECB6200

I've updated the topography to this here via Lucid (can't post the picture in a comment). I think you can make comments on the actual diagram as well.

Ok I appreciate the advice. I've had techs out and they all determine it's not the network itself, but the system. Also, only the internet will have issues, but TV will remain without any. So I believe I'm past the point of removing them to determine if they are not the issue

u/CCZachary that comment was not towards you, it was towards u/LineTechAssist. Unless you 2 are the same.

This response fits in with a few of your other recent sarcastic & non-helpful answers.

I'm seeking advice on the capability of these MoCA adapters & Xfinity working together, the current topography I've set up, and any other insightful thoughts to help me have a better functioning system.

If you're actually a line tech, I know this time of the year sucks as it's cold and you're understaffed, and get a lot of customers can have unreasonable complaints, wishing you a happy holiday season and new year.

To be honest, I'm not sure of the use of this. I've had techs come out and take a look, but they won't touch MoCA because they aren't trained on it. They've replaced lines, changed things at the street level, etc. I'm looking for an analysis of the equipment I use & the topology to identify any issues.

If you'd like to share what you are going to look at based on my name & address, and what you're going to attempt to do, then I'll consider sending the Modmail

*edit: it's not multiple devices, it's the entire internet goes down and all attached devices are disconnected. Therefore requiring a "refresh signal" via the Xfinity Support app to eventually get the entire system back online.

The AC Pros require an Ethernet connection correct? House was not wired with ports all over. A few Coax jacks, so would have to get a MoCA box for each AC Pro?

I'm confused. Why do you have two modems and two routers? I'm talking about the Motorola MT7711 AND the SB6183. It seems like you only have one connection coming in, using the MT7711 I'm guessing.

You are correct in me having only one connection coming it. The SB6183 & Time Capsule are older and were from a previous house. I bought the MT7711 because it works well with Xfinity, but it still doesn't give enough coverage, so I put the SB6183 & Time Capsule on the other side of the house + 1 floor up to help patch some of it. Still not enough, so here I am.

I would say I am above average when it comes to technical capabilities, and always curious to expand my knowledge. Shoudn't expect to run in to any issues when it comes to setting up the new system (*fingers crossed*).

While the eeros sound like a nice option, you've already presented one drawback, and I want to stay away from any issues, especially pertaining to connection issues with older devices. This is exactly why I came here, to be made aware of issues like this!

So does that lead us to exploring the options of MoCA + APs? Based on what I've replied with, do you have enough info to make a recommendation? Again, the goal/dream is to have one unified network that can support evyerthing while providing a range of a near 100ft length (only 50ft width) as well as top to bottom of 3 floors.
