You can log into the modem and find the logs under Advanced-Administration-logs and post them here.

Currently the log only contains the last 6 hours of activity and thus far I have had no reboots today. The last known unexpected reboot occured on 6/6/17 at around noon local time. Once it occurs again I'll export the log file.

This just started happening again. Reboot occured at around 12:15pm Central time. I'm attaching the log files as screen shots. I haven't been able to export them as email yet.
The thing that sticks out to me is that at 12:12 there appears to a remote login from 178.234.188.240:56718 to my local
192.168.0.38:8000. That .38 isn't a PC but a network hardware device.
I traced that remote IP and it's Russian. WTF? Are Russian hacking/attacking my home network?
