Cause of Your Modem Resetting

Your incoming internet connection from your ISP goes directly from the cable in your wall to the modem. Your entire home’s internet connection depends on that modem. When it unexpectedly restarts, it doesn’t matter how great your mesh system is, how great your wiring is, or even the “perfect” placement of your W-Fi router. All your work and your productivity at risk. Your streaming TV and movies will stop, too. Troubleshooting your modem to stop random restarts should start with hardware first—things like cables and power. Then work your way through software and setting issues. You will hopefully be able to fix the issue without having to replace the modem itself.

How to Fix When Modem Keeps Resetting

These fixes apply to all models of modem regardless of your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Some menu options may vary, so check the modem manufacturer website for details.
