Extreme Lag on Cox Panoramic - Wired Connection
I have been a long time customer of Cox Communications in Las Vegas. I've had "high-speed" internet since Cox started offering it. I've had my fair share of issues over the years but the last 4-5 months have been absolutely terrible. I recently moved into a new to me home and wanted to opt for the wireless steaming cable boxes. Unfortunately these boxes require the Panoramic service and Technicolor modem/router. I have a wired setup for my PC that goes straight to the Panoramic modem and I am experiencing lag and packet loss at most times of the day. I have gone through the chat and phone support too many times to count. I have restarted the modem/router a couple times per day for the last month to no avail. I had a service technician come out today and he adjusted something outside as he said my levels were too low. He also blamed the weather and solar flares on the bad connection. At this point, as much as I don't want to, I am looking up pricing on Centurylink Fiber. Has anyone gotten a real solution from Cox regarding lag? Thanks, Frustrated702

Game Lag
Hello all, Currently, I am subscribed to Cox Gigablast, am located in VA, and have a SB8200 modem and NETGEAR Nighthawk XR500 router. I am still getting consistent lag whenever I play online games despite using all the QoS features in my router. Has anyone and this issue and been able to correct it? I have high priority traffic, bandwidth allocation, a geo filter, and anti-bufferbloat featuresand still get consistent lag every day of the week. I appreciate everyone's help in advance! Let me know if you guys need any more data that I am seeing! -JayTwoTees P.S. Due to having my own router/modem, all of my cable boxes are hard wired. This rules out streaming while gaming being a potential issue (which shouldn't even happen with Gigablast in the first place). Also, I would like to note I have had 3 separate service visits and every tech told me the lines/switches on my block were healthy and notcausing any interference.

No internet for 5 days or the connection goes in and out
No one seems to be able to assist. I have tried through the web and the app with resets. I went and bought and picked up new things including their modem, talked to 10 different agents who use the same troubleshooting and telling me to do the same steps I’ve already done. Telling me everything looks fine on their end. What’s funny but not funny about that is, I then received a text from them separately saying there’s an outage in my area. Next was: Cox: Thanks for signing up to receive outage text updates. We're working on it, and expect you to be reconnected by 05:01AM. We'll continue to send updates as they're available. Next was: Cox: The outage in your area is resolved. We'll continue to closely monitor our network. Please let us know if your services are working. Reply "YES" if your service is up and running. Reply "NO" or "Unsure" if you're still having an issue. I say no. Then:We're sorry to see you're having trouble connecting. Please visit https://cox.com/smarthelp to troubleshoot the issue and get back up and running. Then:Cox: Your reset was unsuccessful. Try unplugging the power & plugging it back in. This can take up to 10 min. Then:Cox: It's been 3 days since the outage in your area was resolved, and we're checking to make sure your service is still running smoothly. Reply "YES" if you can connect without issues. Reply "NO" or "Unsure" if you’re still having trouble. I say NO again. Then: We're sorry to see you're having trouble connecting. Please visit https://cox.com/smarthelp to troubleshoot the issue and get back up and running. Now I’m highly annoyed because all these days have passed. I decide to txt AGENT for the 10th and final time. Same troubleshooting steps I already told them I’m tired of doing. Cox: Verify the Coax Cable is Connected into the Cable Port on the Box. Verify Coax Cable is connected to the wall outlet. Ensure all connections between the wall and the equipment are not loose or damaged. Me:I’ve reset, unplugged, plugged back, reset again, unscrewed cords, screwed them back in.It can’t be the modem, router, coax cords, Ethernet cords, power cords, nothing. I got all new stuff yesterday and a new modem from cox 3 days ago.My WiFi worked for 45 minutes today and then gone.I’ve troubleshoot everything, check cords, got a new modem, new router, etc.I’ve been without internet for 5 days.I’ve talked to ten agents.Then I was told there’s an outage in my area AFTER being told there wasn’t Then I’m told-Thank you so much for this confirmation, there are no outages reported in your area at this moment, in this case please allow me to reboot your device in order to clean up your line for any cache or excess of data and check the status of your modem, if the steps we follow don't fix the issue we will schedule a tech visit. 😑 did it, still nope. Next was:Thank you so much for following these steps with me today. I know how important it is for you to get everything working again, it seems like a tech visit needs to be done in order to sort this out for you, the visit would have a $75 potential charge (if the cause of the issue is Cox's responsibility charge won't be applied) I’m like at this point, y’all should’ve came out to the residents affected that are still having troubles because why would they lie 😑😑😑 Anybody else encounter this mess?

TV/cable freezes when watching channels
With most channels, daily my television screen will freeze during scheduled TV shows/movies/live tv and won't fix itself. The screen and sound are like stuck. To fix temporarily, I will unplug the contour box. It will fix it for a few hours at the most and then it will freeze again. It doesn't matter what channel I'm on. Anybody else have this problem?

Cox get your Sh*t together! Horrible service!
Omg cox what is your problem? Since we started getting your service again it’s nothing but problem after problem! Do you guys just enjoy charging people ridiculous amounts of money for ** service? I just don’t understand Why there r problems after problems! I never had any issues with direct tv when we had their service but we switch to cox and it’s nothing but problems! Right now I can’t even watch any channel without the sound going out every thirty seconds and the tv keeps pausing and I’ll miss a whole bunch of important words in the show to fully know what’s going on and if I don’t rewind for a second then the sound never comes back on at all but the show will be going as if I muted the tv but I didn’t and the only way to get the sound back on is to either rewind for a second or change the channel and then go back to the channel I was watching! I’m getting so frustrated cuz I was really into a show earlier and the tv keeps pausing and the sound would go out and if I would try to rewind so I could watch the stuff I missed or didn’t hear it wouldn’t rewind, it would look like it’s rewinding but when I hit play it would go to live tv and no matter how many times I would try to rewind it so I could watch what I missed due to the horrible service and it pausing every ten seconds along with the sound going out it would never rewind and only take me to live tv which pissed me off more than anything cuz I needed to see and hear the part it messed up on! And the reason I was able to see enough to even get into the show was cuz when I went to a new channel it would be ok for about five minutes or only have one or two little pauses in the first ten minutes of the new channel giving me time to really get into the show! And the reason I even had to change the channel was cuz of how bad it was on the channel I first started watching so I reboot my box and changed the channel hoping maybe it was just that channel and just as I’m really into the new show the same ** would happen and it would have pauses every thirty seconds along with the sound going out! Ugh it’s making me so mad I don’t even want to watch tv even though I pay for service so I can watch tv whenever And so I have entertainment but no u guys can’t give me good service which is absolutely ridiculous! And before this I went three months In a row with bad service and other problems cuz u guys don’t know how to fix the problems and make ur customers go months and months with bad service while u take ur sweet time to fix the service All while still charging ur customers! So when r u guys gonna get ur head out of ur a** and get ur sh** together? Seriously?

Been having horrible packet loss, low speeds, and high latency
For the last what feels like 6 months, I've been getting worse and worse performance from my internet, with no end in sight. I often online game, and with the network stats that I get, its been getting less and less playable. I had a tech come out to see and they fixed one of my cables, but it didn't seem to fix anything. I was wondering if anyone could look at my logs and my modem stats to maybe give me a starting point to what could be the problem. Thanks in advance to anyone that might could help. My starting freq. is405000000. And I'm using a CM1000.
