[outages] Comcast Netgear modem issues Nationwide??

Anyone else having issues on Static IP's with the newer Netgear modems? I work in a NOC for a MSP/Reseller and we currently have about 15 down across the country. They didn't all go down at the same time but in "chunks" like 5 went down within 4 minutes of each other. National Accounts confirmed to me a known issue affecting the Netgears. Has anyone else gotten further details? I also did note that it doesn't seem to affect the few netgears we have bridged(passing the public IP via DHCP to our router). In addition on the few that i had a backup link I was not able to ping the Static IP of the modem/Gateway(which is on the modem). So I am wondering if its a config issue. But it does look to be only STATIC customers.
