Hi There,
Im having the exact same issue, did you resolve it? my friend happens to be my ISP and i upgraded to a 100mb connection from a 50mb
And since then i have daily drop outs, but never with my old ISP's crap modem. He seems to think its a DHCP issue aswell he thinks i should return it and get a new one, but i seem to think i will have the same issue!
