I'm assuming when the Internet goes down the TV turns off as well? I've had for years and never a hiccup until recently, then both were at same time and only lasted a minute or so. All remote tests were OK (of course). I was hoping for a new modem (2-Wire). Tech said they are experiencing a lot of power supply cords to modem on my dinosaur so instead of a new modem I got another cord. I was thinking, "yeah, right, a cord". What began as an occasional blip became many times a day but after the new cord, been blip free for 3 weeks.
