this is no help but my modem does the same thing, just not predictable. It comes back on it's own or instantly if I reboot the modem which leads me to think my problem is my modem. fp At 08:33 PM 6/13/2005, Winterlight Poked the stick with: I have had a COX cable account for about six years.

Just pickup a Motorola SB-5100 off Ebay for $50. For a while there was mail in rebate that brought the retail (Bust Buy, Fry's, etc..) price down to like $48. Is it really your modem that needs reset or is your router just hanging? Does your modem have a signal status page? Winterlight

I really don't think his problem is with the GSM format itself. There are some tech differences but essentially GSM and CDMA are like VHS and Beta - competing standards which will both do the job. The biggest difference is that here in the US we use mostly CDMA while just about everything

I use AllTel not a bad company. Prices could be better but the plans are good, service is good, and you can wheel and deal them from time to time. For rural service it can't be beat. I still have to use analog from time to time - if that gives you any idea. FORC5 wrote: Have a friend that is
