I had an similar issue, when I had a PACE STB, replacing it with a Samsung made improvements, but I did still get some crashes. It was most vulerable when P2P was being used.

Look at how many connections your systems are allowing simultaneously. See if there is an improvement if you reduce these. You may also with P2P stuff want to try settings that don't allow the full upload and download bandwidth to be used, say maximise at 75%.

I'm not saying there isn't something wrong with the STB, or equally the cable connection, just that some self help may improve things.
