Whats more important is the error rate. If you're seeing a high, increasing numbers of CRC or HEC (could be named errored seconds) then it looks as though you have a problem.
a high number of any errors in the upstream is considered bad news truth be told. could usually indicate a high resistance termination somewhere, which would need an openreach visit.
