RCA DCM235

every once in a while, several times a day actually, her internet will just cut out and she had to wait about 5-10mins before it starts working again. is there a chance that this modem just plain stinks? is there issues with this particular model?

thanks guys

It's possible. Does her setup include a router? Tried a different nic?

I've had nothing but problems with that particular brand of modem, you should have her ask her ISP if she can exchange it for a different model.

Yup, the RCA 215, 225 & 235's all have issues. As they get older some part of the power conenction begins to fail and become very sensitive (it seems a slight breeze will cause the modem to reset). The issues were resolved with the 245 (differnt power plug/adaptor).
