Cable box rebooting

My cable box keeps rebooting on its own. Why is this happening????  I know when it's going to happen because it changes the channel randomly right before the box shuts down.

@C Hart

Have you already check the power cord and coax cable to make sure all ends are secure?

Hi Bearone2, if you have our Contour 2 service, the time that the daily update takes place can be changed through the device settings on the receiver:

i wasn't aware of being able to change but 3-5 is good because i'm usually sleeping. several times when i've gotten up to let cats in/out i'll see the re-boot.

What make/model?  What software version:  (Contour > Settings (Gear Icon) > About?

Its software might be trying to update but encountering a problem.
