Man, and I thought I was possibly being a little over-zealous when I finally decided to actually run around and unplug things from the wall. Clearly it was the right move. Although now that i think about it, I never unplugged the coax on anything, so I guess my modem still could've gotten fried.
But that's part of why I've resigned myself to always renting my modem from the cable company-- I've fried so many of them it's not funny. And when you rent them from Comcast, they usually replace them for free. Though I suppose if they're only $40 these days, it might not be worth worrying about.
