C7000v2 LAN/WLAN Disconnects every ~15 seconds
Have had this C7000v2 for less than 12 months.
Xfinity ISP
Firmware Version V1.03.08

TV started losing wifi intermittently yesterday. The TVs network test would succeed then fail, randomly. A couple reboots of the modem/router, same problem. Duplicated with wifi on Android/Windows.
Plugged in Windows via ethernet. Pings look like this:

Swapped ethernet cable, no change.
Ability to access web GUI matched up with ability to ping.
Hard reset with pinhole, no change.
Factory reset via the GUI (during 15 seconds of connectivity), no change.
Swapped power supplies, no change.
Called it a night, went and bought an Arris SBG8300, everything immediately/consistently works fine.

C7000v2 plugged into power only
Ethernet to a Windows PC
Same problem; local connectivity drops every ~15 seconds for about ~15 seconds. Same on all four LAN ports. Same with multiple cables, PCs. Same on Wifi 2.4 and 5.
The only log oddity I can find is the system time appears to be set to the year 1970. There are no messages regarding LAN connectivity that I can find.
Searched around these/other forums and can't seem to find any cases exactly like this. The Netgear is not rebooting, only the LAN is lost.
TL;DR LAN/WLAN connectivity dropping on a steady pattern of ~15 seconds on/off. Reboots, resets, known good cable/device swaps complete. No change.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Would need to see the requested data with the ISP service coax cable connected.
