strange

The scenario you describe is frankly quite strange. At least 6 people had problems with their modem cables at the same time and the problems went away when they changed cables? Very doubtful.
Here is one possible explanation. Something went wrong in the phone company. People called and were told their cables were bad. They went out and bought new cables. Meanwhile, the phone company fixed the problem. It's a guess. But I don't believe a bunch of cables went bad at the same time.
