If you're getting packet loss it could be quite a few different things, it could be that your local cable company is having signal issues on the line do to many different things (i.e. if they're working on lines in the area, etc.) Could also be a problem with the cabling of the modem itself, try swapping the coax between the modem and the wall with another piece of high quality shielded coax and see if it still happens. could also be that your cable company is running a shitty router or is having too many people trying to access the router at the headend than its capable of. Could be there fiber link to the net being too congested the list goes on and on.
