Losing default gateway does without fail indicate an issue with cable connection itself - if you wish give me your IP address and I'll be happy to check your return path power levels (these things are almost always return path probs) to exclude any fault at the low levels.

The other chance is that this is a DHCP fault however due to the way the leases run and are renewed by default by windows when they have run only 50% of their total length it's unlikely to be this as DHCPs usually work 100% or not at all.

In any event if you want me to check this out I'll be more than happy to - I have somewhat more access than regular technical support and can usually assist in ways that due to their access they cannot.
