log into the modem and get a screen snip of the cable connection page and the logs and post them back here.
Also, if you have any splitters, attenuators, or amplifiers in line, remove them and direct connect the modem.

Here is at least the event log if you're not ok with that.
Thanks!

You have t3 errors and power fluctuation errors. The snip just shows in the time the page was loaded but from looking at your log, the power must be spiking/dropping.
If you didn't check your line and remove amplifiers, splitters, attenuators, do it now. If you already have, then I'd have your isp check your line.
- KiwiBoxerJun 19, 2020Guide
I don't have any extra stuff like that added on. Looks like another call to my ISP! Hopefully that gets it resolved. Thanks for the advice!

I would have the isp check the line.
When you load the cable connection page, it just shows the values at tthe time it was loaded. But your logs show range violations, power exceeds notices, and t3 errors. Its usually a sign that power is spiking/dropping and causing issues.
- KiwiBoxerJun 29, 2020GuideI just got confirmation of a modem being sent to me. I'm going to wait for that to see if it resolves the issue. My ISP just replaced the lines anyways and said they should be good now.
