ARRIS S33 Frequent Disconnects Daily

I purchased an ARRIS S33 Modem and W33 routers for my home. The issue is that the modem frequently disconnects throughout the day, typically dozens of times. I tried using the Xfinity Assistant however with the frequent disconnect/ connect issues, it determines that there are no known issues which is not the case as  the modem frequently cycles and a lose connectivity which typically resolves within a few minutes (before the self diag completes).

I shared the modem logs below for reference:

Any real answer or fix? I always see the same dumb copy/paste answer saying the issue will be escalated or "try to reboot the modem" but never a real solution. This is extremely common with this modem.

Please create a new topic of your own here on this board detailing your issue. Thanks. The original poster has not returned. 4-month-old dead thread is now being closed.


For future reference, it is better to submit your own post as it creates a ticket to get help, and posting on someone else's older thread can delay getting help.
