My CM2000 that I just replaced due to this issue continues to have the issue of dropping internet intermittently. The modem says it is in partial service mode occasionally. I also replaced the coax cable from the modem to the wall port which didn't help. I changed the surge protector it was plugged into and also tried plugging directly into wall and that didn't help either. All I can think of at this point is that the issue is with the cables outside my home. I just want to be sure before asking Xfinity to come out and look.
Any help would be appreciated here!
Please see below.

Cable Diagnostic |
Status: Poor |
Action: [Partial Service] If the Partial Service mode does not go away within a few hours (Click the Refresh button after each step): 1) Make sure the coaxial cable is tightly connected. 2) Remove any unnecessary splitters. 3) Replace any required ones. 4) Contact your service provider for troubleshooting help. [Downstream Power Level/Downstream SNR] Try these actions (Click the Refresh button after each step): 1) Make sure the coaxial cable is tightly connected. 2) Remove any unnecessary splitters. 3) Replace any required splitters. 4) Contact your service provider for troubleshooting help. |

Many downstream channels have out of spec power levels and SNR (both too low), and the values are scattered in an odd manner.
If you want to troubleshoot this yourself, please see Internet Troubleshooting Tips. If you can't find the problem or you'd rather have Comcast take care of it and an employee does not respond to your message here, call them at the phone number on your bill or 1-800-Comcast, or use one of the options on https://www.xfinity.com/support/contact-us/. It's not likely they can fix the problem remotely. If not, insist they send a tech out to identify the cause and correct it.
If the tech finds bad coax, splitters, amplifiers, or connections in your home (even if Comcast originally supplied them) you'll probably have to pay for the visit ($70-$100) unless you have their Service Protection Plan ( https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/service-protection-plan, closed to customers that don't already have it). If the trouble is due to a faulty Comcast rental device or anything outside your home you shouldn't be charged.

Hey Bruce,
Thank you for the response. A tech came out yesterday I explained To them the situation I’m facing but all the tech said was the modem is bad and said I had The wrong coax splitter which he ended switching out for one he had but the problem still continued. The modem is only 1 month old too.

That seems unlikely, but if I had this problem and didn't have a spare modem handy, I'd probably try renting one of Comcast's gateway devices for a week or so to see how it compares with the CM2000. If it proves to be bad you'd have to decide whether to continue using the rental, or purchase a replacement for the CM2000. If the rental has the same problem then there's a coax cable or connector problem that would need to be repaired.
Please let us know what you decide and how this turns out. Good luck!
