Hi there!
First time I've really ever had to complain about my internet, it's because normally it's flawless and smooth and I've never ever had an issue with it whatsoever.
What is happening is, is that when I am doing my normal routine, flickering through path of exile, mumble, and hearthstone I seem to get random disconnections that last (at max) about 30 seconds roughly, then it resumes like normal.
But the problem now is that it's becoming more and more frequent to the point it's almost driving me crazy and I have no idea how to fix it, It seems to happen roughly every hour on the exact same minute in the hour.
Example: 11:30, 12:30.
It's just really odd because I've never ever had a issue with this and all of a sudden it's acting really strange, the random disconnects are going to affect me really huge in the next 4 month league of path of exile (Game) if it's not fixed.
I have a cable modem (Netgear CG3000-1STAUS) It's really odd because this normally doesn't happen and when it does, I just switch off the modem, pull the cables let it sit for a few minutes than i start it again.
I'm not that technical, any help will be appreciated.
Note: There is a firmware update, but if it requires being next to the modem to do that I can't at the moment. it's in my brothers room and it's relatively early and they're asleep so I can't until later but what exactly do firmware updates do to the internet? Does it help any?
