MB7420 modems keep rebooting during startup
Very similar to this, if not the same issue: https://forums.cox.com/forum_home/internet_forum/f/internet-forum/28306/two-different-mb7420-modems-keep-rebooting-during-activation The modem boots up fine and the internet connection is great.

Keeps doing it indefinitely. It might have something to do with the client router dhcp or something because I can get it to stop doing the "SW Download INIT - Via NMS" if I reboot the router at the right time. Seems to have to pull a 192.168.100.x ip and then it does the external IP. Not sure why that works or maybe that has nothing to do with it. All I know is I have to reboot the router at the right time after the modem comes up, otherwise the "SW Download INIT - Via NMS" occurs and reboots w/ the same indefinitereboot cycle.
