Signal to Noise Ratio:
Configures the acceptable noise margin for adaptive rate. SNR is the relative strength
of the DSL signal to Noise ratio. 6dB is generally the lowest dB recommended in order for the modem to synch.
As overall bandwidth increases, your signal to noise ratio decreases; the higher the number the better. Your
CL2300 is defaulted at 6 giving you the highest likelihood to connect.
