One downstream, no upstream

I have had Xfinity with no issues for 2.5 years now.  I'm using a Netgear CM1000 modem hooked up directly to the cable that comes into the house and an Eero router. 

At exactly 2am on Sunday my internet went out with no warning. I've done many reboots and replugging. I finally found how to get the network specs and found that there is only 1 locked downstream (power is -24.6 dBmV) and there are no locked upstreams (it says upstream partial service?). 

I have a tech scheduled to come out on Wednesday but can any tell me why or what happened?

@XfinityAmira​ Honestly,  it was awful. Yes our issue was addressed but in doing so, the technician unplugged our neighbors cable to plug ours in. I was getting awful texts from my neighbor about how we messed up their internet. She works from home and relies on her connection and she lost 3 hours of work because the technician shut them off. Luckily her husband went out to the utility box and swapped everyones cords around, found the one the technician was supposed to remove, and got everyone's internet back up. What a hassle and joke of a company technician. We were without internet for close to 4 days and I can't get ahold of anyone to be compensated since the issue ended up being on your end. Our cable had never been buried after at least 2.5 years and it had been spliced at some point previously and had come apart which is why we had no power coming from your cable. It was a hassle that should have never happened.
