C6300 Frequent disconnects
Seems to be a common topic here, but don't think I've seen a definitive answer so gonna try again. Purchased a C6300 because it was (seemingly) the best modem / router out there supported by Comc...

I was helping troubleshoot Jimmie.. He needs to get it provisioned, get his lines checked, or contact support., Why are you talking about stuff that doesn't help people? No offense but you are helping no one.
What you don't understand is other people read this. Specifically people using Google search for answers, so I am putting out information that is common with the problem. So just because it doesn't have to do with certain people in this thread. Every time someone searches " C6300 frequent disconnects" the majority of time they are having the issue that I am explaining.
As I've said repeatedly. The most common problem is provisioning with your modem, otherwise contact support. It's obvious when peole know that you need to provision and can contact support.

Ah, I see. To explain why multiple people did not think this was what you were doing, you made it in no way clear that you were speaking to Jimmie or anyone who lands on this page from a search. This thread is about a pretty specific problem (even if it has a non-specific title), so the assumption was that you'd be talking about that specific problem and the people who have it too. You'll notice that multiple people interpreted your reply to be a suggestion for the people having this specific issue.
I do realize the purpose of posting for the benefit of lurkers and those that later find the thread, but you may wish to make it more clear that's what you're doing in the future. This was kind of like looking someone in the eyes while speaking and saying something you said wasn't directed at them at all.
I'd also say that telling people to save their money and avoid/return a modem that has shown a clear pattern of the same problem is helping. You're welcome to disagree, of course.
