If I got 30' of twisted pair cable from Fry Electronics and ran it from the
Telco box right up to the modem, would that serve as a 100% test to prove
that the problem wasn't in my house wiring?

Just go buy a long CAT-5 ethernet cable and plug the modem straight into
the box on the side of the house. The long cable will probably come in
handy for something else sooner or later.
