Looking to know why my modem is all green? (alien.top)

Someone on FB said it went from docsis3.1 to 3.0. the down light is supposed to be blue. Randomly moving the modem a certain way I can get it blue but only a few seconds. It's also making my speeds almost dial up speeds. Is there a way to fix it?
