Internet connection drops every couple of hours

I have Arris G36 cable modem. During last month or so it started dropping internet connection every couple of hours. The event log on the modem at the time when connection is lost looks always like this (the last event is about DS profile config update):

DS profile config update. DS Chan ID: 193.;CM-MAC=[REDACTED];CMTS-MAC=[REDACTED];CM-QOS=1.1;CM-VER=3.1; 01/03/2023 08:25:38 PM Notice

Also, Docsis spectrum chart looks like this:

What can cause such modem behavior?

I think (keeping fingers crossed) that I identified the problem and fixed it. The problem was with loose compression fitting connector on a coax cable connecting RF signal booster to switching adapter for this amplifier.  Since i fixed it I have no connection drops for the last 2 days. Hope it will stay this way.

Good luck 🤞. 

Beyond physical connection fixes, Comcast is pretty worthless when it comes to anything else. 

Like the MB8611 issue a bunch of us are on our own right now.

Hoping your solution works out.

You most likely have the same problems as the Motorola MB8611 folks who are having intemrittent internet drops every day.

Our message is:  "No Ranging Response received - T3 time-out"

We think it's a network configuration & firmware issue that Comcast & Motorola are not addressing yet.

But what you're decribing exactly what we Moto owners are experiencing!
