*passes Kits an 8dB forward path attenuator.

Same suggestion as when you asked me about it a few weeks ago and for the same reasons, network adjustments, more likely actually network being fixed has pushed your power a bit high.

I'm wondering if you've had a power problem in the past on the low side and been moved to a lower attenuation tap to cure this, then the whole thing has been resolved by an amp replacement or tuning.

Anyway that aside the easiest way to resolve this is to just stick an attenuator on your modem. Interesting to note no DTV issues at all (assuming you have DTV?) I'd expect to see pixellation and other issues on the DTV well before power level on the cable modem causes disconnection.
