Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6A STP is recommended.
What is the brand and model of the host wifi router connected to the modem?
- Xfinity 1200mbps down 50 up
V8.01.02 firmware on the modem
I'm using a CAT6 however, there wasn't an issue prior to last night. The network was fast and stable till then.
The modem is connected to a TP-LINK Archer AX11000 router. Both modem and router are less than 2 years old.

The ISP needs to review and resolve these and any Errors or Warnings seen in the log.
Connections page shows a POOR status as well.
Have the ISP check the signal and line quality UP to the modem. Be sure the ISP provisions the modem correctly.
Be sure there are no coax cable line splitters in the between the modem and ISP service box.
Be sure your using good quality RG6 coax cable up to the modem.
Start with removing any amplifiers, signal attenuators, or splitters from the coax.
From there check the line for kinks, damage, moisture in the line.
Check the connectors for improperly made ends, foil touching the copper coax line, loose connections, bad/old/cheap connectors, or corroded connections. Replace them if you do.
Be sure to power OFF the modem for 1 minute then back ON.
