https://kb.netgear.com/30008/How-do-I-view-or-clear-the-event-logs-on-my-NETGEAR-cable-modem-or-modem-routerHas a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update? A complete pull of the power adapters for a period of time after the factory reset then walk thru the setup wizard and setup from scratch with a wired PC and web browser. Recommend setting the default DHCP IP address pool range to the following after applying and a factory reset: 192.168.#.100 to 192.168.#.200.

Might try adding a coax line splitter or an inline attenuator to help lower the power.
You have too many Correctables that should be zeros.
Be sure your using good quality RG6 coax cable up to the modem.
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.

Have the ISP check the signal and line quality UP to the modem. Be sure the ISP provisions the modem correctly.
Might ask them to help you reduce the power levels on the line.
