First, are you using a router with these modems. If so, double check to see if you need to spoof your MAC address from your NIC card to the router. I have had a significant series of dropouts over the last couple of months with an older Motorola cable modem and a Corega router. I had Road Runner replace the modem with a new Motorola Cyber Surfer which is what they use for all of their accounts in our area now. It stays on and seems to setup quite well. I was still haveing problems with the router, but did download an upgrade which may have fixed the problem. (just installed yesterday so haven't had much time to test it out, but so far today, no dropouts and usually have one by now [4 + hrs of operation from morning boot])
