I was having some of the same problems and Cox came out and said I was
splitting my line too many times(twice) so they ran a new line from the
box to my computer.  Also, they found a frayed cable in the yard and had
to replace it as well.  You may want to give a look see and make sure
that all of the cables in the house and out to the external box are
good.

I'm having a problem keeping my connection to the cable modem up. The 
ethernet on-board "card " is a TLAN and it connects to a DHCP 3 com (?)
cable 
modem. It seems to go down later at night 8-11 or so. I've reset the
modem 
and it'll be up for no more than ten minutes before the connection goes
dead 
again. I'm on Qwest Choice Online. They replaced this modem Tuesday and
the 
same thing happened again last night. Can you folks offer any
suggestions as 
to what might be happening  and preventive meauures I could take? I'm
using 
RH 7.2  Linux as my routing service and as far as I can tell everything
else 
seems to be working right. 

Thanks!

Don Kauffman

PS. Gated isn't running.
