Metrocast Question

My internet connection appears to display a rather odd behavior and I was wondering whether anyone else saw this with Metrocast.

When I reset my cable modem and wireless router the access speed is good. I have used the Metrocast speed test and I am getting about 6Mbps download speed. However, as I let the connection sit, it gets slower and slower and slower. I looked at the wireless router and I am the only one on the connection. I have not tried bypassing the wireless router but this seems like an issue with Metrocast (I will try bypassing the router). If I reset the cable modem and wireless router, the connection returns to decent performance.

Has anyone experienced this one with Metrocast.

Thanx in advance!
