Comcast Cable. No Router. Direct connected. Internet only. No VoIP telephone or cable tv. Just broadband internet service.

Grrrrrrrrrr! :)

P.S. - To Noumenon and Space Wrangler - I sent private reply to both of you.
P.P.S. - If this comes up as a multiple/duplicate post it's because even when I hit the SEND button it comes up with that error message!

Have you called tech support at your cable company? A few months ago I was having an intermittent problem & it turned out to be a bad cable coming up to my house. Swapping to a new modem didn't help. My TV reception never showed a problem, though it uses the same cable.
