Thanks for your prompt answer.
I think there should be much more customer-focused solutions, but I at least I understand the current situation.
Could you put something expicitly stating the policy somewhere in the Cox customer support FAQ's?
I spent many hours in a foreign hotel late at night trying to make it work, calling Cox tech support, checking port settings and security settings, being told I needed to check with my hotel tech support, etc. All of this run-around could have been avoided for me and other people by a clear statement of what to expect when travelling to foreign countries on the Cox customer support self-help guides.
Clearly an "opportunity for improvement". Eric
