Looks good. Some channels are a bit far in power between the channels however if it's working. Let it run.

Seems still a bit all over the place in power levels. Some channels are a bit too high. Something you can try get a -6Dbm coax line attenuator in put behind the modem and see if this gets the power down for those channes.
Correctables and Un-currectables are way better though.

Probably don't have the attenuator yet but seems better if a bit all over.
Is it any more stable? If its stable, I'd leave it without the attenuator.
Is this directly connected to the modem? meaning the outside line comes into the house and goes directly to the modem?

I see the correctable and uncorrectable codewords for the 8 channels that are above
7 dBmV starting to build up (not a lot, fewer than one hundred) while all other channels are at 0 after 20 hours up time. Connection seems stable and there are no warning or critical events logged.Yes, it is a direct connection from the outside to the modem. The cable inside is 24 yrs old and there is one female to female connector to replace a splitter that is no longer needed.

A few errors aren't a big deal but if its building to fast, its indicative of something needing replacing.
Any chance you can put the modem right where that female-female connection is? Every connection adds a point of failure/errors. If that clears things up, it could be a bad connector or even ends on the cable.
