Pointless.

Chris, can you comment on the anti-spam feature of the forum that seems to be blocking posts? I have talked to several people on Reddit who have said they can't post here. They are usually trying to post modem logs like above. Is it the MAC address that is triggering the block? I notice this post took 2 days to show.

That makes a lot of sense. Glad your aware of it. Thanks!

I haven't checked this form since and it's ultimately a waste of time. The problem is still on going it's been at minimum 4 weeks of this 3 of my neighbors that have cox also have the same problems they all use the modern/router provided from cox.

 I have had a tech come out all wiring has been confirmed to be solid there is no splitters iv been here 3 years never had I problem I bought a new modem (same brand also don't really give a *** what company owns it it's worked flawlessly the entire time I have had it here with no changes until cox upgraded the area as well as the storms likely compounding issues) 

The end user gets to come to this pointless forum to "troubleshoot" or talk to a rep on the phone making probably 12 dollars and hour to go through all the same ** we all know to well. I don't currently have my signal level readings as I am posting this from my phone not at home but I can assure you they are bad, I posed them to the cox communication reddit.

It's not my mb8600, it's not anything wrong at my address. I have a second tech that is coming on July 13th. There has been multiple neighbors completely drop cox.

The end user doesn't get information about what these "line techs" might even be doing they have come to my location upwards of 10 times in the past few weeks nothing ever changes it's OBVIOUS that they are not actually sending enough eyes to the site of the problem to actually DIAGNOSE AND RESOLVE THE ISSUE.

Your avarage old lady or work from home mom couldn't care less to fight about this. Oh well internet buffered or dropped for 20seconds to 30 minutes again cox ** I'll change eventually.

It's be FOUR WEEKS of unusable trash connect. At best you can watch a stream or a video for a few hours at most at a time. You want to talk with someone on VOIP or play a game online? Lol get real it's not happening.

The second tech coming to my house will get all the information I have and if cox doesn't want to get serious about actually fixing the AREA WIDE problem then FCC is the next people I'll be speaking with.

I haven't checked this form since and it's ultimately a waste of time.

Sorry you feel that way. Have a nice day. 🙂

I have flagged your post. I was trying to be nice but you had to be a troll.

You know God *** well you are not trying to be nice.

You really hate Zoom huh? Besides the issue you mentioned, what is the reason? Is Zoom the "value" brand?

I am familiar with their brand all the way back to their smoked gray plastic 2400 baud modem. They are the Value VALUE brand. I wouldn't give their product to my worst enemy, (They are already mad enough with me). If you look through various forums, a number of people with the (MB Motorola) product, have issues with it constantly resyncing every 10 - 15 minutes, when the signal levels are a bit hotter than spec. While the Surfboard handles something like that with ease, the zoom is incapable, hence we currently have 2 people currently active in the forums, BOTH with the "Motorola" Modems, with the exact same issue. (Imagine that). I do not like their product, and feel that by purchasing the NAME Motorola and slapping it on their equipment to dupe people in purchasing a product based on name recognition, is underhanded at best and is fraudulent at worst.

"Motorola is a leading brand of cable modems at retail, and we're honored and thrilled to be licensing this powerful brand," said Frank Manning, Zoom's President and CEO. "This license has the potential to grow Zoom's sales dramatically."

Basically ARRIS maintains the Motorola equipment hardware/software, ZOOM uses it's OWN hardware/software with the motorola name on it. 'Underhanded', since it lends itself to duping people who is purchasing something based on name recognition.

Plus the several people here. And all the other threads that deal with the MB86** series and more.

That point I certainly agree on. It's up with putting the wireless speeds front and center on the box of routers when those are just hypothetical speeds and are rarely seen in the field.

I don't care.
