Yes, I know you cut out occasionally even though I haven't complained about it. Please stop. Lines like this:

Nov 28 18:22:31 cantor kernel: r8169: eth0: link down
Nov 28 18:22:33 cantor kernel: r8169: eth0: link up

are pretty darn indicative you're rebooting.

Is it the router? I'm wondering if it's the internet flaking in and out or the cable modem resetting or the router. This is just the sort of internet flakiness we used to have last time we lived in Austin. As long as I've had road runner here in Austin (like 4 years), it's been flaky.

I'm 95% sure that this means that the actual ethernet port that my computer is connected to is going down, which means either the cable is coming undone (no) or one of the computers lost power/is rebooting. So it's possible the cable modem is flaky as well, but this is a separate thing.
