I am randomly getting disconnected from an online game that's hosted on AWS.
This issue is completely fixed by using a VPN, but this requires extra payment from me so it's not a permanent solution.
Since I never get disconnected while on a VPN, I do not belive there is a connection problem from my home, but rather there are issues with how Comcast is routing to the game servers.
Here is a sample network trace diagnostic:
