What is CoxWiFi?
My computer lists three routes for internet access, 2.4G, 5G, and CoxWiFi. I use 5G and am happy with it. The first two are associated with my Arris TG1682G gateway. But I'm wondering what CoxWiFi...

My EEE doesn't see 5 GHz networks but is otherwise fairly sensitive. For example it can detect a neighbor's network 200+ feet away from me. It's currently sitting about 10 ft away from my gateway and the 2.6 GHz network that it sees registers a signal strength of 5/5. So a possible explanation for the EEE not seeing CoxWiFi is that it's 5 GHz. But that doesn't explain why the computer that I'm at right now can't connect. Here's the SSID list that I see:
I can switch to the second 2.6 GHz network but when I try to connect to CoxWiFi I get "Can't connect to this network". I'm groping here but might this be some sort of servicing feature for Cox?
Hi, Bill. The device can clearly see the SSID. It's simply unable to join. If you want, please email us the physical address and any other pertinent information to Cox.Help@cox.com with your name and a copy of this forum message. We will be glad to help.
