Just a thought.... you might have been better off buying your own modem and saving the recurring monthly rental fee. You could have gotten one with wireless.

Not exactly die, I could not access the internet wednesday night.. I tested the Xbox live last night, so I know I am back up again. I might replace my modem, its 5-6 years old....

Mine didnt die but it wouldnt allow me to download at the full 6 Megs I was paying for. I had and old DOCSYS 1.0 Modem and for some reason that was preventing me from getting full bandwidth. Swapping out my modem instantly changed my DL speeds from 4 megs to 6 megs. Go figure.
