The modem I have is an Arris surfboard sb6141. It’s just a modem, not a router.
Router firmware version v1.0.10.94_3
I just found out my internet provider is working on a “node” in the area. I’ve been having issues off and on for a while though, so not sure that will be the fix i need.

Good. That rules out a lot of possible problems.
Does the modem have LEDs that tell you anything useful? If that isn't connected. then your router can't either.
Do the router's logs have any useful clues?

There has been a "Hotfix" since then.

No harm in trying, but I wouldn't expect that to fix this sort of problem.
