So my original problem was that my internet connection was dropping (Xfinity) so we scheduled a tech to come out for a fix.
The initial issue was resolved because it turned out that the line was damaged and the house we moved into had multiple splitters that were causing our signal to "leak" he mentioned that he was surprised that we had a connection at all from how bad it was, he disabled all the other Coax outlets that weren't in use and our issues were fixed for that day.
I should note that Prior to this visit we had our Arris SB8200 modem's lights as Blue for downstream. (speeds are 600+mbs Down and 30mbs Up)
After his visit the internet went down that night only to return in the morning but the lights on the Modem turned all Green and occasionally flicker (and have remained green) but occasionally it turns Blue for downstream for about 5-10 seconds whilst the connection drops only to return to green again.
For ex. any stream/Netflix video/Game that is running will cut out for that time while the downstream light turns Blue but reconnect once the lights turn back green. Our speeds are still as fast as before but the connection is not consistent at all.
We Power cycled the modem repeatedly asked Xfinity to reset our connection on their end, Factory Reset our modem and even called the tech back to check it out, but He couldn't figure out why this was happening and every time we tried asking for Xfinity to help they kept trying to sell us their modem and upgrading our plan instead of doing anything else.
I am not a techie that can diagnose the issues from the modems login page so I can't tell what is going on there.
What are my options to fix? could it be a Modem issue? a Coaxial Cable issue? Power issue?
