and more packet loss and disconnects.

So, this is becoming incredibly unacceptable.  

I've had 70+ disconnects over a few days.  This has been an ongoing problem for months now, and I feel I've been gracious about it, but this needs to be fixed.  The last tech that came out weeks ago didn't even have a working machine to test the line, and thankfully called another contractor in the area to come help him, and now, it is back to being terrible.

    We also have been plagued by these system failures, with similar log sequences.

    The latest was this morning just past 10 AM

        I decided to purchase a newer modem as next step.

        Our cable is direct (no splitters etc) from buried Cox cable to modem. One joint with barrel in the attic. This has happened several times over the years, worse in recent weeks.

        Also, with some frequency, emails that originate in our IP cameras directed through our Cox email thence forwarded to our remote server, take HOURS to be forwarded. This has occurred recently. Really lowers my faith in Cox infrastructure.
