Please post a copy and paste of the modems connection status page.

Thank you for the reply!

Checked the cable connection again tonight and this is what it is showing. I'm still getting drops in service and those ICMP flood dos attacks are still happening from random IP addresses.

You have come correct and un-correctables that should be Zeros. Check and make sure all fittings are snug, no kinks in the cable line up to the modem. Be sure your using good quality RG6 coax cabling. Remove any coax line splitters.
