Packet Loss Again

I had this problem before and it took me almost 3 months of calling corporate and filing an FCC to finally be free of this issue. The problem seems to have come back though its been like a week of me having random moments throughout the day of having nonstop packet loss. I have called Cox Support again and they are sending a technician out tomorrow but just to be sure I would like to eliminate any possibility of this being an issue in the home that I can fix myself. The last time every technician that came out could find no problems with the connection in my home but always found issue with the pole outside. I really hope this isn't the case again because I've only had good internet for maybe a month of no packet loss. Is there a way for them to just nonstop monitor my connection because when I call support during my times of packetloss when they do their ping test my packet loss may resolve itself during the call and then suddenly start back up again once I'm off the phone with them.
