New Tuning Adapter constantly rebooting Tivo
I just received the new Vecima tuning adapter and originally had issues activating it. Had a Cox tech come out and got it sort of "working". Hours after he left, I turned on the TV and it caused my Tivo to reboot. Once it rebooted, it couldn't see the tuning adapter. If I leave it connected to the Tivo, I noticed it rebooted a bunch of times (it interrupted some recordings). If I leave the Tivo and Vecima unplugged for 5 minutes and then plug them in, it will connect. As soon as I went into the Tuning Adapter diagnostics, I can see the firmware is 1.8.0 and after 2 button presses it rebooted my Tivo again and the tuning adapter is again not showing up. Do the reboots ever stop? I can't keep it connected if it constantly keeps rebooting and stopping my recordings.7Views0likes1CommentFollow up to Cox notice
I recently posted a question about an equipment update from COX. A moderator, DannyS replied that the update involved new Tuning Adaptors. Strangely, DannyS disabled replies, so I'll start another thread with my follow up questions. As stated in the original post, my tuning adaptors were updated about a year ago. Are you really going to update them again or is this an error. I finally got a hold of a real person at Cox. She stated that the update involves new Cable Card, not Tuning Adaptors. She seemed to know what she was doing and was fully aware of the fact I had new tuning adaptors. She has send me two now cable cards. So... What's really going on? Thanks,167Views1like5CommentsBoot issues

I have a TV ROAMIO that has been used without problems with a tuning adapter for 9 years. A few months ago I was sent a new High Split Converter (HSC-1-H) and I installed it and it worked without issue for 2 months. At 2 am a week ago, I could not receive any channels. When I unplugged the HSC tuning adapter - everything returned to normal. I replaced the Cable Card - no effect A COX tech spent 2 hours in my house and was unable to find the problem. He verified that all my wiring, splitters, and signals to the unit were fine. He replaced all the cable and splitters. I replaced with TIVO with a new ROAMIO - No change - Nothing will work once I plug in the Tuning Adapter. COX sent me a new Tuning Adapter (HSC) and everything worked for about 24 hours - then, once again at 2 am - the problem returned. No channels unless I unplug the tuning adapter. I have changed all the USB cables, twice, changed every component in the system, twice, and watched the COX tech work on the problem for 2 hours - Nothing. I have an open support ticket, but no one ever updates the status. Any suggestions? Firmware updates?673Views1like42CommentsOver charge by Cox
We have had MLB.com for years and pay $150/year for it. It can be accessed on our computer or on our television. Cox is now trying to double charge for it saying we requested extra innings (whatever that is) I filed a complaint to the Better Business Bureau because they wouldn't remove it. It's relatively easy... if you have an overcharge, don't let them get away with it.79Views0likes1CommentWhy did my DVR stop recording certain episodes of shows set to series recording?
I have several television shows set to series recording, and recently noticed that I’m missing weeks of recordings. I have the TV shows The Voice, Abbot Elementary, etc set for series recording and it’s skipped 4 to 5 episodes and picked up weeks later after all of those missing recordings. When I attempt to play the recordings, they are only available on Peacock so I just was forced to pay for subscription to Peacock. If I want to watch my shows, why is that so when I pay for Cox Cable already and was able to record in the past? Help, I called Cox and was told that it’s something to do with the actual TV channel prohibiting me from recording, but I for Service and expect to be able to record so where’s my refund? lol help fix this56Views0likes2CommentsWebco advertisement when tv turned on
When the tv is first turned on, a Webco advertisement appears rather than going to a tv channel. It is supposed to go away with the push of any button on the Contour remote, but it doesn't. None of the buttons do anything. We have to just wait for up to 2 minutes for the channel to come on. We've set the privacy and notification preferences, but nothing changed.54Views0likes4Comments- 49Views0likes1Comment
UPSET
It is Sunday, April 21st. We have had no cable Tv since 12:50pm today. It is now 8:11pm. We have been customers for 19 years. This is utterly unacceptable and disgusting to not have service for my household when I pay such high costs each month. I am not happy and you will be crediting my upcoming bill. I am now receiving texts from Cox Saying service will be restored at 10:20pm. The first restored service was 2:20pm this afternoon. This has ruined our weekend and I am so unhappy WE HAVE NO TV Sunday April 21, 202453Views0likes1CommentService out 2nd time this weekend
Service just went out for 2nd time this weekend. We spend $400 ! MONTH ! For this. Thunder Game's on at 8:30, and they're estimating service fixed at 9:30. Unacceptable. We have had cox for 32 years at this address. And at least 10 years at our last address. We are about to fully retire and believe me cox is the first that will go at these prices and this poor service. I've teleworked since the beginning of covid and limped along with your slow internet service you've been to my house a month ago because we keep dropping service and here we are at 2 times in 3 days. We CAN get OEC now for half this robbery with FIBER OPTICS.39Views0likes1Comment
