I seem to possibly have 100% same issue.  Can't say when I specifically received the 9.0.1 firmware from Comcast but that is what is currently installed on my CM2050V.

 

I have had the CM2050V for about a year and prior to this last month it never had any issues.  Rock solid connections with just a few short interruptions overnight a few times as I believed that Xfinity has been performing service upgrades in my area as well.  

 

However, In the last month I have repeatedly had the exact same issue that you have described.  Most recently it happened twice in two days.  Signal levels are normally fantastic.  When I lose connection the downstream and upstream lights are solid and internet connection light blinks.  Only solution is a modem reboot and it immediately comes back up with perfect signals.

 

Seems to definitely be something going on that is possibly related to this firmware and I am hopeful they resolve it because it is causing me some angst with my VPN and some automatic backup routines I have setup to run on a schedule.  Each time I perform the power cycle to fix this issue I am assigned a new IP address which then requires me to reconfigure my VPN on both ends.
