AC1900 (C7000) downstream blinking

I recently got Spectrum cable internet and a Netgear C7000 modem/router. At first, speeds were 100mbps+, but now they’re less than 30mbps and the downstream light is constantly blinking green. Any help?

    It usually means that the downstream channels aren't all locked or its searching to lock them. 

    If you pull up your modem connections page and take a screen snip, it'll help. 

    Also if you have any splitters, attenuators, or amplifiers on your coax line, I'd recommend removing them.
