Thanks, I just double checked, and I don't have NOMOROBO service on this line. Maybe I should considering that's the bulk of calls. I could spend hours blocking numbers.

Power levels are good along with Correctables and Un-correctables.
Any Criticals, Errors or Warnings seen in the event logs needs to be reviewed and resolved by the ISP. Indicates a signal issue on the ISP line up to the modem.
Have the ISP check the signal and line quality UP to the modem. Be sure the ISP provisions the modem correctly.
Be sure there are no coax cable line splitters in the between the modem and ISP service box.
Be sure your using good quality RG6 coax cable up to the modem.
Start with removing any amplifiers, signal attenuators, or splitters from the coax.
From there check the line for kinks, damage, moisture in the line.
Check the connectors for improperly made ends, foil touching the copper coax line, loose connections, bad/old/cheap connectors, or corroded connections. Replace them if you do.
Be sure to power OFF the modem for 1 minute then back ON.

As this is not a Comcast provided modem, Xfinity had me work with Netgear support first. They determined there were signal issues, so I had a Comcast tech come here to check the line.
All lines were checked and cables changed. As this didn't improve the signal, an attenuator was install, vastly improving the signal.
As the phone issue persisted, I had them come out a second time. Lines and cables were checked, signal was good, they stated there were no issues on their end.
The last time I had Comcast check they determined it was a hardware issue with the modem and Netgear agreed, an replaced the modem.
The connection is from the line to the cable box, and from there, straight through the wall to the modem. There are no splitters. Signals have been checked and the modem reprovisioned several times. I have probably power cycled this thing 100 times and reset it at least a dozen.
I'm sure it's an issue with Xfinity, but their proposed solution is for me to rent one of their gateways, which I'm unable and willing to do at this time.
This is a definitely a head scratcher.
