If the modem was just dropping power (not getting new addy) then it may have been a power issue, but the new Addy would indicate it's something further down the line.
Good Luck!

When I called Ntl they said that everything looked okay down their end and that it must be something wrong with my computer. But I reformatted, then run adaware and Spybot etc.
