So - before you power off/on the modem (and you've lost internet):
1 What do the Cable & PC LEDs show?
2 Is the modem connected to your PC by USB or ethernet?
3 If ethernet, is there a router in line and if so what make?
4 Have you logged into your modem when directloy connected and examined the readings? We could do with seeing the Upstream & Downstream power levels, Operational Configuration, Status - in fact whatever's on offer.
5 Has anything changed on your PC? Ethernet drivers or settings?
You never know what we might find

i called tech support, the guy told me to reset the modem a bunch of times, when that didnt work he told me there must be an "issue" in the northwest where i live. So that call was a waste of time.
connection is working at the moment.
1. PC light is off, cable light is on.
2. Ethernet
3. Not sure if the modem is In-line, it's a scientific atlanta 2100 from Telewest.
4. Not sure how to do that.
5. Nothing changed.
