The first thing I'd do with your levels is eliminate your house wiring completely. Get a brand new piece of RG6, go to your demarc and attach that brand new piece of RG6 directly to the line coming from the curb (there should be a bonded bullet connection there). Then hook the other end of that RG6 directly to your modem. Then hook a computer directly to the modem with a known good piece of network cable (Cat6, Cat5E, etc). Then check your levels. If they're still garbage, it's a Cox problem, if your levels look good, it's your house wiring.

There is hardly any changes. Like I said, I've done everything I can on my end.

I hope cox can send an experienced technician this time.

Those levels are definitely out of spec. Way too low. If you hooked directly up to the demarc and still got those same low levels then you need a tech. Ask the tech what the levels are at the demarc. If you don't know how to interpret the numbers then write them down and post here. Unfortunately most techs only do what their handheld troubleshooting tools tell them to do and don't really understand the network so sometimes you have to call more than once before you get someone who understands how to fix it.
