Internet dropping for 30-60 seconds every few hours

Hello,

After moving to a new residence and using Xfinity for the last 2 months, I continually drop internet for about 30-60 seconds every few hours though my gateway never actually shuts off. This is extremely frustrating due to having 2 members of my family working from home. I can log into the gateway and post any information that may be helpful, I am just also running into a bug with Xfinity forums not allowing me to post through PC, only phone. 

Gateway being leveraged is XB8 supplied by Xfinity.

Downstream values range from:

Power Level: 0.7-5.8 dBmV

SNR: 37.2-41.5 dB

Upstream values range from:

Power Level: 46-47 dBmV

Update: Had tech out yesterday to take a look at everything. For the most part most things appeared normal but he removed a split in the line to make it more direct to the modem as well as another few minor improvements. Service has been stable for about 24 hours now and will continue to monitor going forward

Sadly after about a month or so I again am having this issue with no real idea how to solve it. I’ve considered changing hardware (swapping the gateway out) to see if I have any improvements but at this point I’m quite lost on what I could potentially do next.
