To reset a cable modem you just unplug it from the wall for several seconds.
I only have to do that to mine about once a month.  The Motorola modem I
have has several lights on during normal use and if I see that only the
power light is on while I'm trying to work I know that it's time to reset.
I think in the past six months I've had to reset about 4 times, it's very
irregular as to when I have to reset.  You can get lots more information and
online forums at www.dslreports.com
