My Asus Win 8 laptop causes my modem to reboot when plugged directly into it. Reboot happens right away over and over. It works fine through the router or on wifi. It happened when the Comcast installer was trying to activate my service. Happened with a brand new Netgear docsis 3.0 modem so exchanged the modem for a Mot SB6141. Same issue on that one and did it on one of Comcast's Cisco modems too. If I plug in a different laptop (Toshiba Win 7) or plug in my router everything works fine. No signal issues or anything else (he tried everything) only difference is the laptop. So discrepancy with ethernet adapter or Win 8 and these modems?
