    So if you're having similar problems, call for a tech and don't be scared off by the talk of a $75 fee. Look at it this way: if it's a Cox problem, you'll get your problem fixed and won't have to keep asking for help on the forums. And if it's a problem in your equipment, you can get it fixed for $75 which is a very low fee for on-site technical services. So either way you get your problem fixed. It's good to post here so you can get advice from others, but once you've ruled out your own equipment, call for a tech and get your problem fixed.
