...It works with Ubuntu.

Follow joeten's instructions and check the Device Manager for errors.

Give this a try.
The cable modem I have does the same thing if I plug a different computer in to it and it may see the Ubuntu system as different.
In my case I unplug the power to the modem and remove the battery from it for 5 seconds. Then turn it on again and all is good.
I hope this helps you out.
