You could rent one of their modems for a month, and see if that helps
and then buy a new one if it does.
My internet from comcast is usually pretty good, but I had a morning
when it was intermittent -- on for a minute, down for two minutes... I
turned eveything off and then on again, and that didn't help.
I called support, and they said there was "jitter" on my line and they
reset my modem, and it worked normally again.
I have one of those deals that includes a phone, so I have to use their
modem, and because of the phone it has a battery, so just disconnecting
it from the power doesn't kick it hard enough. Another good reason not
to use their more expensive plans (besides that they cost too much
money).
