[thelist] To reboot or not to reboot. That is the question.

Now and then when my cable-modem service goes down and I've had to resort to
calling tech support to get it running again.
 
COMCAST (my ISP) insists that I power down my modem and my PC, then power up
the modem first, and after it goes online, then power up the PC.
 
Is there an reason why the power down / up of the PC would do something that
running IPCONFIG /RENEW  would not ?
