Do you have any information about how to stop these annoying interuptions of interrnet access through the C3700 router/modem? Mine has been doing this and I would like to fix it if possible.
Thank you

Having the same issue here. One computer plugged into the router is fine, but 2 or 3 and it starts dropping packets for a few seconds every few minutes. Comcast as well.
Any word on the fix?

I am having the same problem with the C7000 router at one of my accounts it has droped connections with Comcast the past few days and one other issue is when they (the account that this is at) por the router it lost all the config and came up as a new unit. This should have never happen. Had to come in and reconfig the C7000 to get them back up on wireless.

Hello Rmacbeth
Is the C7000 connected to a spllter if so try swapping cords from the TV to the modem or try removing the spliter and connecting the modem directly to the wall.
