Ethernet dropping out constantly, HUB5

Hi, i’m having an issue with ethernet connection dropping out randomly for a few seconds (Hub 5), i have tested different Ethernet cables and also tested on 4 other devices and tried all of the different ethernet ports on the back of the router, all have the same issue with it cutting out for a few seconds then going back online happens 10-15 times per hour, WIFI is completely fine and has no drop outs, we recently had an engineer out who replaced our Hub 5 for a new one but still has the same issue with ethernet dropping out.

This is the only error which pops up on the router logs when the ethernet drop out occurs; 

GUI Login Status - Login Success from LAN interface

    Who is repeatedly logging in to the Hub's admin menu & what they are doing.

      Nobody, that is the error that pops up every time the Ethernet disconnects, nobody else has access to the admin menu other than myself.

    They not errors.

    They are event records showing that someone has successfully logged in three times 
    and has failed to login once.   The Hub log will show the dates & times for each entry.

      Thanks for the clarification, i have just had another look into the network log and have found these error/warning messages

    These are typical for messages of a DOCSIS connection.

    The contents of the Upstream & Downstream status tabs could be more informative,
    these are where we can see if the VM signal to the Hub is in spec or showing issues.
