SLOOOOW SPEED!

Why on earth is the internet so incredibly slow?  This is not a new issue, but has slowly worsened.  It has gotten to the point where I might as well go back to dial-up service, which would save me money.  I see no replies to anyone else's posts regarding the same issue.  Is this now the new norm?  Is it time to find a new internet provider?

Hi mlyn,

That's definitely not the new norm, we don't want you to have to suffer through slow connection speed! I will take a look at the account, check for issues on our end that could possible cause the slow-down. Can you please email us at cox.help@cox.com, in your email include the name and address on the account.

Could you give some data?

1. Signal levels of your modem. Can be found at 192.168.100.1

2. Do a test at Speedtest.net

3. Do you have a router, if so, have you bypassed it?

Its unlikely that your problem has anything to do with others given this is a national forum and your problem seems fairly typical.
