Okay ...this is out of left field but it's worth a try. You say that the cable TV signal and the Comcast internet signal are coming in on the same cable. You're not using the TV signal. I had a similar problem about a year ago..HD cable ..digital TV. I do use the cable TV signal along with the cable internet signal...both come into the house on the same cable. Turned out that the grounding was squirrelly. It caused a static build up on both feeds. The TV would start looking wavy on the lower channels and my internet signal/connection would cut out. I called the cable company and had a service guy do a rewire of the ground. It worked. Before he showed up I would go down in the basement where the cable feed entered the house and unhook the main feed (it connected to a splitter/booster box) and hold the end of a screwdriver on the bare wire...that would get rid of the static build up...and everything was fine for a month or so. The wavy lower channels TV picture was the early warning clue that sent me to the basement. If I ignored it long enough my internet connection would eventually go spazzy. Once I had them check the ground and rewire the ground I haven't had the problem.
