You are already on the right track in attempting to use another service to provide the connection. Since you have already identified that you do not get the same behavior when tethering from your phone it may just be the hardware and not a configuration issue.
If possible, test the connections using another modem and/or router. Make certain that you test them one at a time though. Replacing them both at the same time will just create another variable. In other words, if you replace them both and the problem is solved you would still not know if it was the modem or the router. If your modem and router are one combined unit then that will not apply.
At any rate, if you have another of those on hand, can borrow one from a friend/neighbor, or otherwise that is where I would get started. If you do not have access to alternate hardware then skip straight to contacting your ISP as they will have extras to test with.
Swap in the alternate hardware and test it to see if the connection continues to get lost. If the problem persists it is time to contact your ISP.
It is also important to note that the connection integrity required for your browser to access things like Facebook and YouTube is far less than what you need for online gaming which requires a constant and more powerful stream of data. Not to mention the fact that your games rely heavily on upload speeds as well. Facebook and YouTube do not. In other words the fact that you can access those sites is not necessarily an indicator that everything else is working fine.

To get my connection to work, I had to configure my Netopia DSL modem for Bridged Mode and let my router take care of the routing and address assignment. I would also try to get a working connection before configuring security. You can always do that later. You have the order of powering up you equipment correct. Read this link. It works for me.

Your router has an lan address or IP. Something like 192.168.1.1. This is what you must connect to. Each of the machines you want to connect must have (in this example) an IP number between 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.225. As long as your machines all have a unique IP they should all connect to your router. Your modem will have a gateway and typically this will be something like 10.0.0.1. So setup for one machine may look like this [192.168.1.3 subnet 255.255.255.0
To find these setting, click on your lan connection, select "properties" and choose "Internet Protocol TCP/IP". Here you will see these settings. Your router guide will give you these settings, make sure you get them from your router guide.
