My arris s33 has been working fine for along time, I use Xfinity have solid lines until a few weeks ago it started bugging out, it said it was online yet wasn’t. I had to unplug it, it did it again a week after etc. it’s plugged into a cyber power backup battery. Any ideas on what could be going on here? 
TIA

also should I use my warranty if still valid?
