When just browsing web pages etc (when the connection is not under much load) the connection is fine (modem not rebooting), however, when I start downloading something big and put some load onto the modem (e.g. ftp'ing or bittorrent etc) it keeps rebooting approx every 10 minutes or so.
Getting the same here as well, same modem and firmware, Nottingham area.
Don't think these modems can handle the load
