Hi guys, just wondering if I could get some help here, I'm running a linksys BEFSX41 router with a motorola SB5101 cable modem, all the latest firmware and drivers. If I go to like a friends house or something, I come back and my connection is killed. I have to reset the modem to get connectivity back. This gets really annoying especially when I'm trying to download a huge file or something. Any thoughts?
