My cox internet keeps dropping connection!
For a little over a week now my internet has been dropping connection on all devices in my apartment, wired and wireless. I called cox and the first representative claimed that my issue was that my modem was “unhealthy” even though I’ve had it for less than a year. I have a net gear nighthawk C7000v2 which is a very expensive router. So I replaced my modem with a brand new net gear night hawk, but I’m still having the same problem. I then replaced all Ethernet cables and bought a new co-ax cable and the issue still is happening. I’ve called and talked to multiple 6+ representatives and texted with about 10+ others and no one has been able to do anything and they even refuse to send out a technician because there connection is good on there end and are blaming my equipment. Does anyone have any suggestions or should I just cut my losses and cancel my cox subscription??

When you say "brand new netgear nighthawk" are you talking about the CAX80? If so, when your connection drops do the lights on the modem change? If so, try posting your signal levels from 192.168.1.1 > user: admin password: password > Cable connection. There will be downstream and upstream levels. You can copy/paste the data or upload a screenshot to a hosting site. Posting pictures here is tricky. That won't fix your problem but it might show what the problem is.

Could have sworn I posted an answer here. Replace the barrel connector in the wall plate, if that doesn't help, you may need a trouble call.
