Internet Access Issues

I have an Apple TV modem and recentlyexperienced trouble with all of my devices being able to access the wifi. I called apple and they said to attach apple to modem with Ethernet cable. That fixed my being able to use my apple device but I still cannot get to my wifi despite putting in password on both my phone and computer. Cox states I have a great connection but how do I get into it for my devices.....

What devices do you actually have?  There is no such thing as an "Apple TV modem".  Do you have a gateway (combo modem/router) or a separate modem and router?  What model?  Did you try powering off your modem/router/gateway for about a minute then restarting them?  If you have a gateway, power it off then back on after a min. or so.  If you have separate modem and router, power them both off for a min.  Power on the modem and wait for all the lights to come on solid then power on your router.

Putting aside the AppleTV, how can your other devices not connect? Can the see the network but not connect? Connect but not get online? Etc.
