Slow speed already - Can I downgrade without it getting worse?
I have the Cox Ultimate 500 internet yet my download speeds are less than half what is advertised. They average between 150 and 175 Mbps. If I downgrade my service to Ultimate 250 will Cox force the speed even lower, or will it likely stay the same?

Sounds like you have an old DOCIS modem. DOCIS 3.0 can't do high speed. You will need a DOCIS 3.1 modem.

When I upgraded to 550mbps, I had to get the Cox Wfi Cable/Router (DOCIS 3.1) and the speed is sporadic. Some internet speed tests show 550mbps, but some show less than 20mbps. My downloads are barely reaching 1mb/s. I've connected the Cat-6 directly to my PC to the Cox wfi/router/modem and it made no difference. Wifi is faster than the ethernet for some reason.
