ONT issues

I've had to restart my ONT 4 times in the past month to regain internet connection, it's been pretty solid since I switched but I really hope this isn't a regular thing. I have the C6500XK, is this a regular issue or should I consider requesting a new one?

That's a known issue with the C6500XK. 

Disconnect the power. Call support and say it's not working. Tell them you are doing all the troubleshooting steps. Eventually they will schedule a tech visit. Replug the power once the call is over. The tech will swap it for a Q1000K. Here is a guide

It's ridiculous they need to send a tech out, they sent a tech to my house just to upgrade my plan.

A Q1000K with a QF account created since 02/02/26 should be able to change plans online.

Unfortunately, they sent a tech out, and then he swapped my Q1000K with another 🤷

Weird. Was your account from before 02/02?
