Super High Uncorrectables/Intermittent Slow Downs

I have Gigablast and an SB8200 modem.  When I first signed up for the service my download speeds were constantly 800+ for months, ping and jitter were always extremely low.  However over the past 3-4 months I've been getting about half the advertised download speeds, upload speeds have remained as advertised or better.  I chatted with tech support today, their conclusion was that my modem must be having issues.  After visiting some other forums, I was advised that my uncorrectables are extremely high and something isn't right.  

Is having a tech come out to look at the outside lines/inside wiring the best course of action?  I don't want to spend the money on a new modem if it's not actually the modem.

Any advice would be most helpful!

I am having the exact same issues. Chat support literally suggested a modem replacement within 5 minutes of the chat right after rebooting the modem.. Not sure what we can do to get attention from Cox at this point

@Gja676, Are there any splitters or signal amps on the cable line going to the modem? -Allan, Cox Support Forums Moderator.
