Thinking about ISP problems: why the fuck do I need to restart when the issue is clearly on your end? 99% of the time restarting doesn’t do shit to resolve bad provisioning, modem-specific problems, bad coax, etc. And I don’t want to restart until I’m prompted because I’d rather some of these shitty modems that don’t keep logs have something available for inspection.
Anyway, I use all my own hardware so this really only ever happens when I try to help family and I’ve done everything on my side of the modem already.
