This is quite often reported as a problem with STBs, particularly some models, when they are driven hard up against the upload rate cap for prolonged periods. The only workaround is to software rate-limit your uploads to about 85% of your hardware upload rate cap: this prevents the lock-up condition arising. A permanent fix is to get a stand-alone cable modem instead of using the STB for broadband.
