MR1100 turns off internet when my computer shuts down

Question

I am experiencing the weirdest thing.&nbsp; When my computer is on, the Internet works great and everyone is happy in the house.&nbsp; When I have to reboot, or when my computer crashes (new computer and working out the kinks), the internet becomes unavailable.&nbsp;I looked through the menu options and am not finding anything that makes sense to cause the outages.&nbsp;I am using this modem in combination with a Linksys Home Router for serving up the Wireless Network in my house.&nbsp; The modem does not have the DHCP or router turned on, so that the Linksys can handle all of the traffic and routing.&nbsp; The battery is also remove, since this is in a house, so portability is not required.&nbsp; IP Passthrough is set to ON, as well as VPN Passthrough.&nbsp; Ethernet Standby is Disabled.&nbsp; Client Privacy is not checked.&nbsp;Any ideas?

For a little more background, we upgraded from a LB1120 to this modem with no changes outside of the modem to allow the passthrough for the Router.&nbsp; Which makes it all the more confusing, since the LB1120 didn't have this "issue".&nbsp; It really seems like I have a setting somewhere that is making my computer act like a proxy server for all connections...but I can't find anything I might have done that would have caused this.&nbsp; :(
