Why don't they make your router reset itself?

[MikeHawthorne]

I sometimes have to reset my Comcast router several times a day, especially at night.
When it does, I wake up in the morning grab my tablet and there's no connection.

I have to go to the library, unplug it wait a minute and then plug it back in.

Why don't they just make it turn itself off and have a built-in timer switch that turns it back on? The switch will have to stay powered in some way of course.

I use my internet connection for TV a lot as well, for streaming Amazon video, I don't have Comcast TV.

Internet, and is mysterious associated parts (for me) , seems t behave differently for different people and setups. I had my "no longer young" router on, without break, for about three years now. No noticeable problems with internet speed. Fingers now crossed - I might have been heard
