Here is something totally unexpected! I contacted technical support and netgear is sending me a replacement modem using next day shipping with a return shipping label included! No charge to me.

Netgear support is awesome!

That case number is 40708117. The issue is resolved. I am now totally sold on netgear service and products. If anyone ever talks trash about them I will kick their butts!
