Speed cut in half everyday.

Hello,

I was just wondering if anyone else experiences this problem or could shed some light on it. Usually at the same time everyday, about 4pm, my speed is cut exactly in half. I cycle the modem and it is back up to the normal speed. I'm getting tired of cycling it everyday. Any thoughts?

call tech support say I have to reboot my modem daily...could be many different things.
From another device in the home causing the modem to loose power voltage (sump pump, refrigerator, heating system...), to the power adapter getting on it's last legs.

I would replace the whole unit, power adapter and see if issue persists.

The modem is brand new. The lines are brand new, and all the cables are brand new. It doesn't seem to be happening as often now so I guess the post is solved.
