@Ober Dober, Your modem is up and running with a good signal and I do not see any unusual latency/packet loss at this time. Are you experiencing this issue with multiple/all devices in the home or just one? Also, can you try a wired device and let us know the results. Thanks. -Allan, Cox Support Forums Moderator.

Obviously it doesn’t happen at all times. However, we are blamed yet y’all charged to do some line changes when I got gigablast and it never worked and now it is worse. Never your fault though, always our modems or our routers. Don’t here these issues as often from friends who have centurylink and they get the full speed cause they have fiber. Tell your company to stop cheaping out.

if they had gone through with fiber instead of stopping cause google stopped we wouldn’t have these issues. Hopefully a story or political pressure get y’all moving soon.

    I've checked the modem signal levels and the SNR levels are not up the spec. I suggest unplugging the power cord and reseating both ends of the coax cable if there's a splitter or amp bypass it. If you have another coax outlet you can also try that. Once connect back we can check the signal levels or you can post in the forum.
