I'd start with a separate router and modem setup if possible.
Should make it easier to isolate your problem and it might just go away.


Funny you should suggest that, as I just returned from driving halfway to the customer site to install a Linksys. Instead, I turned around, deciding to have them turn off the server tonight to see if the gateway still "locks up" or otherwise stops responding anytime between now and 7:30 a.m tomorrow morning. I have a ping test monitoring the gateway right now. If the gateway still has problems with the server and all workstations turned off, I think Comcast's theory is pretty much debunked.

Agree?

It would go a long way towards it if indeed all the LAN equipment is off,
but that really doesn't solve anything.

Next try sticking that Linksys in and reconfiguring the Netgear as a
plain router (I assume that can be done) or replace it with a another
router.
