cm500 keeps loosing connection

I’ve had this router for 2+years. All of the sudden about 3 weeks ago I keep loosing my internet connection. Unplug for a minute then plug back in and it will work. Sometimes for days other times for 15 minutes then lose connection again. Any help?

Re: cm500 keeps loosing connection

A couple things I'd recommend. 

1. Include a screen snip of your modem connections page and your logs page. These are important to see how the signal is coming into your modem.

2. Remove any line splitters, amplifiers, attenuators, 90 degree elbows, worn cables, kinked cables, or extended runs. Inspect for loose connections or moisture within the coax lines. These causes many problems.

Re: cm500 keeps loosing connection

Way to many errors on your downstream and your upstream power is to hot.
Your ISP needs to check your lines. If you have splitters, amps, bad coax, 90 degree elbows, bad/loose connectors replace them. They can cause errors too.
