In the digital world, it either works or it doesn't work.
But the actual world in which digital things operate is analog. Also, your modem converts the digital signals into analog signals for transport over the coax. That's what modem means -- modulator-demodulator.
Your connection can be impacted by all sorts of things that make it "kind of" work. Really it's the protocols and error correction that makes it sort of work with a bad signal rather than a go-nogo situation.
