Consistent Lost MDD Timeout and RCS Partial Service Errors

I moved into a new apartment (Denver, CO) on 8/1 and have been dealing with general connectivity issues since returning from a trip on 8/14. As soon as I powered up my modem and router, I noticed that the modem would reset the connection every 15 or so minutes. It was a fairly old modem (SB6141), and not technically supported by Xfinity, so I decided to start with purchasing a new one.

After purchasing and connecting a new modem (SB6910), I'm still experiencing issues, although not as severe. While the modem never appears to lose the connection entirely (doesn't go through a reset cycle), my network speeds are wildly inconsistent (anywhere from 80 Mbps down to 400+) and the modem logs report issues nearly every minute. I finally was able to arrange an onsite tech appointment after multiple support calls but wanted to share my logs and other details in the meantime in case anyone has feedback.
