This is a strange post, and thus I was unsure where to place it.
I think my cable modem, a terayon, is killing coaxial cables. It goes down on a consistant basis and the only way to revive it is to swap out cables. The modem will only connect with a cable that has not been used with the modem before, yet when used for TV, the cables seem to work.
I've ruled out every other factor - I've reset the modem manually, and then tried swapping in the "dead" cables, only to have the modem die again. According to my ISP, with the dead cables, the single from my house shows that the modem is disconnected. I have a service call on Monday, but I was just wondering if anyone has seen this before.
