You can also have your ISP flash your modem and see if that does the trick. It may, but I wouldn't bet my life on it.

The worst part of these internet nodes and modems and so forth is that problems show themselves as intermittent reduced capacity, reduced capacity, or just gremlins.
I'm just suggesting based on my recent grief.
I replaced my brand new modem at over half it's cost after shipping and all, and it works great.
I just got a bad piece of hardware.
Yours has likely just had it's day in the sun.

Not disagreeing with you, but this modem/router was put in less than two months ago. They changed out the other one that was less than 2 years old when I first started having the problem, so I'm not saying it definitely ISN'T the modem, but it's happened with more than one.
