Slower than expected speeds on Ultimate tier
I just recently got on the ultimate tier and am getting slower than expected download speeds. I remember testing it out when I initially got it and was getting around 200 - 275 Mbps however these past few days I've noticed my download speed has been slower than usual. After testing it seems to hover around 80 - 100 Mbps. When looking at my account I also notice that the status of my internet is "Service Interrupted". Upload speeds have been consistently hitting 30 Mbps so there's no issue there. My modem is a Motorola MB8600. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No worries, Stephanie S. from Cox Social Media Support got back to me and suggested I look at the Ethernet cable. Didn't even think about that. I replaced that and my speeds are as expected now. So everything is working fine, thanks for the help!

DonnieTC,
There could be issues that may be causing your problem with the internet service. Would you check the connection from the wall to the modem are finger tight? We would like to check your equipment for issues. Would you send us your full name & address to cox.help@cox.com so we can look into your issue?
