1 edit | Could the next generation of actiontec modem auto-reset?
One thing I notice is that after a close thunderstorm I sometimes have to power-cycle my actiontec 724 modem.
Wouldn't it make sense for actiontec to make the modem automatically cycle if the dsl sync was lost beyond a certain time threshold?
