Cox sees my modem, but no internet...
Have tried 2 modems and Cox says they can see them, but no internet. They said call Netgear. While waiting and being 19 in que and 30 minutes after connecting, the internet connected. My daughter said it dropped 2X today, she reset it both times. So basically my new modem drops like our 3yo modem that Cox said was the original issue. Any ideas?

We have had the same issues. I really don’t now what to do. It’s Ridiculous how they want you to pay for a tech to come out and look at your Internet.

I'll assume you have a separate modem and router (Netgear). Do you and your daughter use wireless devices? Do you have anything hardwired to the router? When the Internet drops, does the hardwired device still have Internet access? It could just be the wireless portion of your Internet access.
It could be your modem dropping the connection, but it could just be your router.
