Internet drops repeatedly for many weeks

for over 4 weeks now my internet has been dropping several times a day. I have replaced the modem but that did not fix the problem. I have no option to speak with an agent and the xfinity assistant is quite useless since it just keeps asking me to restart the modem

I have had this issue intermittently for the last 2 years and worse the last few months. I have spent money updating my equipment because Xfinity troubleshooting is so poor and they want to charge $100 to come back out to my house. When my entire street is having the same issue, why not be honest about what is going on in the area. It takes talking to the techs in the field and my local retail location to get an honest answer. Unfortunately, there are not many better options at the moment and no long-term solution from Xfinity so I am filing complaints with the FCC for daily inconsistent service. I pay too much each month to not have reliable service and then the onus to be on me to seek credit. Several times a day I have to use my hotspot on my phone and have 0 issues but it then eats into my allotment for hotspot.
