I don't see any suspicious software causing your KP so the first thing to look at is RAM or a failing HD. To get some further education no the subject I'd recommend reading XLabs article on KPs and how to troubleshoot them.

Run Apple Hardware Test in EXTENDWD mode 2- times. If you don't know how Google AHT to find instructions. While not totally reliable it's the only hardware test. You are saying you don't even have a backup HD connected, the ONLY thing is a modem?????

If I may jump in here - what is it that you have connected to a USB port?

And, do you have a router? What is the exact model of your modem and is it a combo modem/router?

Ran AHT in Extended mode, if not then you need to run it again. Also follow babowa's advice too.

It is a Netgear router model WNDR3700v4 and a Cisco modem 2100 DPC2100R2. Router I bought myself. Roadrunner/Time Warner issued me the modem.

I am now confused -the report shows something Broadcom (presumably your modem) is connected via USB? Is that correct?

If yes, the modem should be connected via ethernet to the Mac. The router should be connected to the modem (not the Mac). If this is not what you have, please post the exact way you have it connected.

Well, frankly, I have never heard of this type of connection, but I just downloaded and read the install/setup instructions for the router and that is what it says.
