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.
Be sure to disable LAG on the modem.

I have attached screenshots(can only attach one per post it appears will attach the second screenshot in the following message) of the connection page when the internet was disconnected. The technician that came out tested the signal and line up to the modem and determined it was fine. The ISP has reprovisioned the modem twice with no issues either time. There are no splitters in use and I have tried multiple coax cables to no avail. Ethernet port aggregation is disabled. I did try enabling Enable Extended Upstream Transmit Power to fix the issue, but that did not work.
