Based on:
 "I get timed out connections constantly.  It works
sometimes, but not nearly enough to depend on it for anything of any
value." And "Reinitializing the modem by any means other than the
power switch does not fix the problem."

There's a big difference between "constantly" and  "14 out of 15 days". I 
was going by your
first reports, and what you reported then sounds like a bad modem. I 
withdraw that, based
on your changing story (ahhh, flashback to Tech Support days.) Good luck.
