CM1200 loses connection after 24 hours
Just bought this a week ago, and after troubleshooting my router, having Comcast come to the home to check the entire line (they replaced the connection at the pole and made sure there were no unnecessary splitters), I’ve concluded this new modem is the problem.
My connection is great after I reset the modem, I get 170M down and 25M up. After various amounts of time though, usually 18-36 hours, the speeds drop, and I also randomly lose connection for a second or two and then reconnect (I can monitor this as I have a Netgear 6200 usb WiFi adapter, and it displays a popup message every time you connect to WiFi). After a power cycle of the modem, things go back to normal. Below are my recent logs. I’ve opened a case, and I sounds like after talking to a rep last night I may have a faulty modem? They said to see if it keeps acting up and call them back tomorrow, which I will do.
I haven’t taken the time to search the forums for others with the same issue, but more or less wanted to share my experience so far with the CM1200. Perhaps this is a well known issue others are experiencing.
