No Ranging Response received - T3 time-out / Modem Rebooting

I have an SB6141 and my modem has been losing connection intermittently and sometimes even reboots. See picture below for signal. Any help will be much appreciated! https://i.imgur.com/1jncAiV.jpg

Those are o/k so far. Please post the rest of the downstream channels. Also, post the RF error / event log entries as well.

Not sure where to get the rest of the downstream signals. That was all that was listed on the signal page. Here is the log https://i.imgur.com/PpCrd1q.png

O/k, my bad, sorry. That's an 8 channel modem so there aren't any more. They are just labeled strangely (9 thru 16).... The stats are o/k. The error log entries, not so much.

Perhaps there is noise ingress into the line(s) somewhere.

There are other signal stat figures that can't be read by the modem. They are the "Upstream Rx Power" (Upstream Receive Power Level), the "Upstream SNR Ch." (Upstream Signal To Noise Ratio), and the "Upstream ICFR" (In Channel Frequency Response). These are as equally important in diagnosing connectivity issues as are the modem's stats.
 
I'm going to escalate your issue to the Comcast corporate employees that are available to these boards. They will be able to poll the CMTS to see whether or not everything is in the green zone, see your node / cable plant and modem health, and also see a history plot for the modem. You should get a reply here in your topic. Good luck !
