TV box rebooting

My TV box keeps rebooting itself every few minutes, but never fully comes back up.  It has been doing this for a couple of week since a storm/power outage.

Mine is doing the same, but without any prior power outage - only an Xfinity service outage yesterday. I'm losing about 15 seconds of programming every 30-45 minutes, but it's not regular (i.e. it's not "exactly" 30 minutes apart, it's just in that range of 30-45 minutes.) Can't get anyone to answer the CS phone line (infinite hold,) and the online AI just tells me to try rebooting, which I've already tried at least 6 times. I'm about done with this company!
