*sigh*

Unless you are using X-Box Live or PS2 Online services the disconnections will be from your PCs confusing the modem as it's only configured to have one device connected to it.

That's probably where the disconnections have started, you *may* have had this already and the upgrade put you back to maximum of 1 CPE at one time.

The rest has been explained to you already I guess, although just to make doubly sure if you have a look at the connections to the back of the modem I've a hunch you'll find copper there. Quick test really, if copper then it's electrical which kinda eliminates optical which is carried by thin glass fibres, unless there's a new kind of copper I've not heard about which is transparent.
