Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Has 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.
I don't use the MESH system as router since I have some port forwarding settings that I need.
I had a Motorola MB8600 originally but they swapped it out to one of theirs since it was not reading right on their end.
The one they gave me is a DOCSIS 3.1 eMTA EU2251
I swapped out the ethernet cable already.

I have not done a factory reset on it since I didn't want to lose my port forwarding settings but I can do that as a last resort if no other ideas come up.
