Arris SB8200 Issues

Starting  roughly 41 days ago there was an Xfinity outage in my area, since then the performance of my SB8200 has been subpar (Packet Loss, high latency spikes and speed performance is all over the map), I used to have a consistent 800Mbps down and now it fluctuates between 280-500Mbps.

I feel like there was some change pushed out to my area that is causing my SB8200 to not perform as it used to, I checked and I am running the latest version of firmware (AB01.02.053.05_051921_193.0A.NSH), can someone please help me determine what is going on?

Same in my area ( Southern NJ) Was getting 800-900, now down to 500-600. Xfinity Compatability site now says "Incompatible due to fliters" What the hell does that mean??

I also received the following email, but I don't recall requesting an upgrade of my plan, I was perfectly happy with my speeds prior to this change and it seems I am being forced to swap out my modem for no good reason:
