Can't forward ports
This is **. Just a couple months ago this was not a problem. I moved and my modem did a firmware upgrade. Now the port forwarding menu is just gone and replaced with a WiFi.Cox.com link. Except, when I click that link, it tells me to upgrade. When I click THAT, it tells me I am ineligible to upgrade.I contacted cox and they told me that the only upgrade I have left to buy is the cox complete care plan, which as far as I can tell is just tech support for people who don't know what they're doing. I'm a sys admin. I don't need help, i just need this feature.
Suspiciously High Data Usage, Netgear CM1000 Modem errors and Connection Issues...
I cancelled my contract with AT&T and switched over to Cox Gigablast last year for $119 a month. After the first few months of exceeding the 1TB data cap I went ahead and upgraded to the unlimited plan ($49.99/mo) to avoid all the overcharges. I've been having a lot of connection problems and intermittent upload/download speeds the past several months. Went to the Cox website to see if there was a fix and noticed my data usage is still high (roughly 2TB a month). Considering I really only play Xbox One and use Chromecast to watch shows on Hulu/YouTube TV (720p/1080p only), I'm a little suspicious. I checked the event log for my Netgear CM1000 modem and noticed a bunch of errors piled up such as: RNG-RSP CCAP Commanded Power Exceeds Value Corresponding to the Top of the DRW Dynamic Range Window violation TLV-11 - unrecognized OID; I'll add the event log and cable connection info below, if someone could take a look and help me make sense of all this I'd greatly appreciate it.
