I have had the same problem with my linksys 4 port router and my DSL
modem. I have finally given up and now I just go and reset the router
and forget it. Could never figure it out.

Will follow this thread with interest,,

Does the cable modem behave normally otherwise? What do its status
lights show during one of these outages? How long is the dhcp refresh
cycle set?
