I don't think your problem is with Time Warner. The C7000 either has persistant issues or firmware problems. My C7000 does the same thing except it behaves even more erradicly than yours. Mine will stop passing traffic to it's local LAN interface but still pass internet traffic, then stop passing internet traffic but pass I can ping my LAN interface.
A reboot fixes it but also switching between 2.4G and 5G channels also resolves the problem on occassion. The fact the LAN interface on the C7000 stops responding randomly tells you right there that it's not a Time Warner issue. That aside from the fact that their "Technicolor" despite having a weak wireless signal, works flawlessly.
This so far, has been an unreliable device for me. I replaced a Linksys AC1900 with this device for which unfortunately, Linksys while being reliable, had its own issues with traffic limitations and various releases which are stable one second and unstable the next.
Just wanted to let you know that you're not alone.

Don't know what the problem is with Netgear theses days. Used to use a bunch of their stuff - even have a box of old RT314 that need to go out. If no solution soon I will start pushing for a refund.
