I spent 20 hours diagnosing my internet in a situation that sounded like yours. The solution actually showed itself: the copper from the street pigtail had a connection end that was improperly installed. It grounded into the protective braided metal around it, and each time the isp came to diagnose, they disconnected the bad wire then measured from the street and said "no issues". I felt really triumphant when that was corrected.
