"I want to get my internet disconnected by my current internet provider. I want a new connection by a different provider because my current connection keeps dropping out. I have problem getting online when needed. (is it wrong to say "come online?")

Please check.
 
My internet connection keeps dropping out so I'm going to sign up with a new provider.

That's all you need to say.

"I want to get my internet disconnected by my current internet provider." Could you please tell me that what is the correct way to say this?

You can say, "I want to drop my current provider", but emsr's post #2 includes this implicitly.

It's unnecessarily wordy- who else but your current provider could do this?
 
"I called my internet provider and told him. If my internet keeps dropping up I will drop him and sign up with a new provider."

Please check.
 
Just for once, you have created two sentences from what should have been one. Also, "dropping up" is incorrect.
 
"I called my internet provider and told him if my internet keeps dropping out I will drop him and sign up with a new provider."
 
I called my internet service provider, telling them that I would sign up with a new provider if my connection kept dropping out.
 
I called my internet service provider, telling them that I would sign up with a new provider if my connection kept dropping out.

I think the comma is not required.

I called my internet service provider telling them that I would change service provider if the connection problem persists.
 
I think a determiner is missing.

I do not think so. Phrases like change phone, change address, change course, etc are commonly used without a determiner.
I consider it optional.

The sentence is better without the comma or pause.
 
How about "I will drop him?" Is this incorrect?

What will be dropped is a provider instead of a guy.
I would put the first question mark after the closing quotation mark.
