random slowness on Comcast fiber in ALB, NM

We are seeing random slowness during the day on our fiber connection.  D/U are in the 300/30 range but then will slow down to 58/33 or 63/33 speeds.  When the internet is slow, we're seeing traceroutes times like these:

When the internet is running fast, traceroute times are:

 2     2 ms     2 ms     2 ms  50-251-14-190-static.hfc.comcastbusiness.net [50.251.14.190]

Have opened a couple of support tickets and was told they would be escalated to Level II, but they keep getting closed without any update from Comcast Support.  We worked with a tech to power-cycle the modem last time and he was going to escalate - but the ticket just got closed.  The speed changes are random but seem to be within the Comcast network?  

Any help would be appreciated, off and on now for 5 weeks.

Apologies, the slow Traceroute was posted twice.  Here is the Traceroute when the system is working great - download speeds ~ 300:
