The info Jeff gives below is what I need to do also to reset my Toshiba 
Modem. The tech also said to undo the coax, then unplug the modem, let it 
set for about a minute, then put the cable back on and plug it in. The 
lights are pretty self explanitory on the front. If the Data Light doesn't 
blink, I know the info isn't coming in. That's only happened once in 6 
months.
There's a lot more to learn (on my end) about the MAC - the secret number 
on the NIC - and how the TW guys know if I try to connect another PC. I 
have a Linksys router, and want to hook up my laptop and other PC, but have 
some problems with them right now. Eventually I hope to have them all on 
the cable.
