Upload speeds drop <1mpbs constantly
For months now there are periods when my upload speeds drop down to 0.1-0.3mbps. During such time phone service becomes also unusable if needing to enter any phone menu driven digits, and any tv channel change becomes impossible to do.
I've complained about this constantly either in app, phone or through X (twitter) when it happens and it usually then miraculously fixes itself for another few hours after wasting 2 hours until it again reverts back to being unusable.
There seems to be no scheduled date or time to fix this issue. Nor will anyone advise me exactly what the issue is. Nor will Cox send someone out to my house to troubleshoot (indicating I guess they know where the problem rests).
Hopefully someone here is willing to investigate and provide an actual answer when I can actually expect to get the service I pay for.

First thing to check is if the problem happens to wired connections as well as wifi. If wired too, then try bypassing the router and connect direct to the modem to test you speed. Remember that you have to reboot the modem each time you change what it is connected to. If that is also slow, or you have a Panoramic gateway or some other combo, then look at the signal levels. How you see the signal levels depends on what model device you are using. What model modem/gateway do you have? Last, since you mentioned you have TV to, how does the coax connect from the street/pole to the different rooms you use coax in? What kind of splitters and how many? Are you using a amp?
PS. I would remove the second photo. It shows your public IP and doesn't show anything useful.

I see from your previous posts that you had this issue years ago. Was that resolved? If so, how and when did the problem come back?
