Errors in my system log

Been having a little issue with my connection recently, the internet never fully cuts out but sometimes it seems like it has disconnected for a split second and this happens every minute or so which can be annoying when trying to watch videos. I have put an error log below showing all the red errors that keep popping up.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi @iTzGriggs, thanks for your message on the Community and thanks for the error logs. We see the logs, however, when you're watching videos, do you notice the drops? Can we also take a little more information from you: 

- Are you on the Super Fast or GigaFast service? 
- How long has this been happening for?
- Any particular times in the day / week where its worse than others? 

Hi Mark,

We are on the superfast and get roughly 70mb downloads which is fine. I'd say it started happening in the past week or so because I never noticed anything till that point and it just seems to be a constant error log every minute or so with the same errors no matter what day. 

Thanks
