CM1000 requiring rebooting several times a day (Comcast)

Interesting, the overall problem was solved for me and several neighbors. Cox replaced a mini-amplifier in the box at the street. However, I found the item that had the largest impact to overall network stability was unplugging our Ac1200's extenders. interestingly, we each had one on our individual networks and removing them resolved the overall issues.
Well, I received the .15 firmware last night and it has not brought my DL and UL speeds back to the sames speeds I have gotten with every single other modem I have ever owned, so I have decided I will be returning the CM1000 to Amazon today. I am not going to keep a brand new $180 32x4 modem that is outperformed by a 4 year old Arris SB6141 that only has 8x4 channels. Sorry, Netgear. I gave you a chance, but back to Arris I go. Looks like I will order the new SB8200 and see how that goes.
I received it also between 2AM and 7AM this morning and things seem to have improved here. Speeds are good and Only time will tell!
- Well 11 hours and no problems yet....
