Internet Cuts out

So I pay for a service. This service unfortunately is the only one in my area. I have not been happy with this internet provider. I upgrade with you. I have a new modem. I bought a router. And this ** still cuts off every 20 mins. Only my area does. I get no answers on the cox site. I am not calling due to the fact I do not want to wait on hold for 3 plus hours. So my question is what are you going to do about it? People pay for a service and if it is not capable then fix it.

    Cox did something mid last week. I have had constant dropouts. When I called the auto answer said they were working on the internet in my area. It's been horrible ever since. I've tried the standard reset my modem using Cox, manual unplug, etc. Same result. I have an application that monitors and counts the failed internet (dropouts of more than 4 seconds). Today its at 34 in 10 hours. On Thursday last week is was over 50 in 2 hours. My connection has never been like this.
