Default Comcast user-modem reset

Any other comcast users have to reset their modems constantly within the past 2 weeks? See some posts on the help site of other users throughout the nation having the same problem. Driving me crazy.

comcast has been screwy here. my tv picture has been crap and my modem keeps going in and out. they were supposed to have sent a service rep out, no one showed, they did give me a promotional discount for another 12 months. i've been on a "promotional" discount for about 4 years now. they are willing to work with you as soon as you mention "going elsewhere".

Default Bad cable feeding house?

Our cable modem was acting up and we finally called them. They came out and checked the signal to the house and modem and had to replace the cable from the box to our house. It's working alright now. If your channel 2 is a little bit fuzzy that could be your problem.

My TV reception is fine but I keep having to reset the modem, I even reinstalled the software with no change, just drops the IP address after a while.

Yep. I had to powercycle my Comcast cable modem this morning.

The service is good, when it works.

WOW Internet User here, but DTV for TV Service.. Used to have Comcast Cable, and their TV Service sucks ***. Their digital cable BS is nonsense, since only the higher channels are digital, and lower channels are analog! I'll stick DTV 100% Digital

I'm not familier with "WOW". I assume this is another broadband cable internet ISP? Which company offers this service, and what is their website? Thanks.
