All lights blinking. No service. CM500
All lights are green and the service is still spotty. The ISP isn’t much help. What should I do? I’ve done plenty of reboots.

Who is the ISP?
What speed package UP and DOWN do you pay for?
Modem is a DOCSIS 3.0 and maybe getting out of spec with the ISP. Does the ISP still approve of this modem on there network?
Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the modem and router been performed?
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
Turn off and unplug modem.
Turn off router and computers.
Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on computers and rest of network.
Factory reset the modem?
Please post a copy and paste of the modems connection status and event log page.

I just noticed they upgraded me to 500mbs speed. Which I never asked for. Think that is too much for the modem?

Try a factory reset by pressing the reset button in back for 10 seconds then release?
What's the brand and model of the external wifi router connected to the CM modem?
