This is great, I now have something I can show to my customers to confirm that all this power cycling and such really is an 'accepted problem'...

Description - copied here for convenience:

All the issues associated with the Internet being down can be solved by
power cycling the modem and router. But that can be hard to do! NetReset
resolves network issues by offering sequential power cycling. This means
that when the modem and router are plugged into the device, they are
powered up at different times. The modem is powered up first, then a minute
later, the router is powered up. This rebooting will occur at initial
setup, every 24 hours and after a power failure. Do you have a modem/router
combo? No problem! NetReset will also power cycle the modem/router combo.
