Wifi Kicking devices off

Evening, My modem keeps kicking devices off of Wifi. My iPhone, iPad, and my satellite, all are struggling with disconnections. Is there anyway to make it so that the modem keeps a constant connection of wifi, when the device is on, but not being used? The wifi disconnections have affected my satellite in a negative way. I can be watching something on my iphone or tablet, and have to disconnect, than reconnect to get my internet back. Modle:TG4482 Also this modem is not even a year old. I have tried taking everything off of the modem, for like 5 mins, and reattaching, but no luck. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I have the same device, and I have no problems.

First, contact Shaw [1-888-472-2222 or www.shaw.ca/chat ] and get them to remotely logon to the XB7, to view its internal statistics.  Maybe, the Rogers/Shaw Agent will find something, and will ship you a replacement.  Or, they may schedule a technician to do a "site-visit" to inspect their infrastructure and your devices/wires.

Do you have a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) connected to a wall-outlet and your cable-modem, to provide "smoothed" electrical power to the cable-modem?
