UPC router/phone problem

    Got upc broadband for years now but recently my upc phone frequently will be flashing saying I have a missed call from an unknown number but the phone would not have rang. I also noticed that the odd time internet pages are not loading and I'll have to refresh. The wifi is not dropping so I was thinking is could be something to do with packets getting dropped.

    Has anyone else experienced this? I have a Thomson twg870ug.

    Should I get it replaced? Is the cisco router upc supply any better?

    Good to here I'm not the only one so but I'm not switching off my router, thats why I think it must be rebooting/ malfunctioning to make the phone act like this a couple of times a day. I wonder have they updated the firmware on the routers recently to cater for wifi-free and it is messing things up.

    to be honest i wouldn't no much about that stuff but i just had to restart my modem and it happend again. Ive even deleted the missed call from the list but it just shows up again.
