I've had this modem for since October 2017 and it has done the job well up until about a month ago. Download speeds are all still great (130 megs, paying for 100), but upload is miserable... mostly at night (0.1 megs). During the day it might get as high as 5. The weather has been cold, and people are home a lot more, I'm not sure if any of that could matter. Technical support was convinced it was the modem, but they didn't ask me for any information from it like power, which I see mentioned a lot here. Well I decided to order a new CM2000, not that I need the speeds that offers, partially because I wanted to be able to test it myself, but I was curious if there was anything discernable from the status page that someone might consider an obvious problem.
For testing I've isolated the modem to directly connect to my desktop PC and get the same speed results. I've also tried going off the wifi in a separate test (since that goes through a different cable just to rule out eithernet... I guess) and got the same results.
I think I'm using the best coax I have access to in my apartment, but I'm not positive. It's the only one I see that makes sense as where "it comes into the apartment." Other rooms are wired up however, but nothing about that should have changed (and I don't actually use the coax for anything but this cable modem).

Not all of your downstream channels are locked and your upstream power is really low. You should be 35+ on the upstream. you're at 26.
Your logs would tell us more but it indicates a line issue at this point.
If your isp is saying "its not our lines, its the 3rd party modem" and won't fix it, I've had to actually rent a modem before to prove it was a line issue. Once its fixed, I simply returned the modem and put mine back in.

Re: Mediacom owned Netgear CM1000 has recent Very Slow Upload
Interestingly I was able to kinda take your words and the lines from my stats page and get them to send out a tech... it won't be for a week, but that's better than getting the new modem, trying it out, seeing that it doesn't solve the problem and then waiting another full week after that.
