I've had mediaone for about 4 years. Shortly after I got Mediaone I had
some strange outages and the customer service person diagnosed it as a
problem with my tranceiver (my original cable modem was AUI). The service
person came out, and checked the wires from the polse al the way to the
cable modem and found that every connector was not properly installed.
There was nothing wrong with my tranceiver. At that timne, they had a
contractor doing the cable side of the install. Have them come out and
check everything out. Also, check your conections.
