I've had a fiber modem for about 8 months now and for a while it's been restarting on its own around 2-3 in the morning. It knocks out my internet for about 5 minutes and then comes back. Is this normal or is there something I can do to stop it?
The first thing I'd do is contact your internet provider because they probably have a script or automatic update scheduled for that time, and they can disable it or change it to a different time. If that doesn't work, try restarting the modem manually in the morning and see if it keeps happening, or try unplugging it from the power for a few minutes to do a complete reset.
