CM 1000 T3 and T4 connection timeouts persistent for years now?

There are a number of similar posts and messages in this support forum regarding the same connection issues with the Netgear CM1000 DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem.  It seems that the issues persist even years after the initial problems were detected and, allegedly, resolved through firmware updates.  According to the support --> firmware/software page, I have the latest firmware version installed by my ISP (RCN).  However, the same connection issues are seen in the event logs as the other related forum threads here.  The problems were not there while I was leasing a modem from the ISP.

Something to have your ISP review with you to see if there is any issues. 

Be sure ISP checks signal line quality and levels up to the modem.

Be sure there are no coax cable line splitters inbetween the modem and ISP service box.

Re: CM 1000 T3 and T4 connection timeouts persistent for years now?

I only have Internet service; i.e. single coax line.  I did call to make sure the modem was provisioned correctly after I kept noticing service interruptions.  Aside from the modem itself, I don't see anything else that's changed.

Additionally, I've also noticed the logs show warnings about dynamic range window violations.

 

The pertinent downstream/upstream info:

Something to ask the ISP about...
