WiFi Intermittent with New Cox Panoramic Gateway

Hi colleend Nope, the connection can drop even when the HP is completely Shutdown. The HP laptop seems like more of a false cause or rare cause. If the laptop use can be a cause of the connection drop, any idea how to mitigate that?

Can you tell me what causes or relates to the Data Harvest entries in the Event Log, as cited in my original post?

@ColleenD The laptop uses only wifi.

Thanks bearone2. I am aware of this and we are shutting down portable devices not is use, and I am monitoring on Cox WiFi mobile app. My question is, as I am on Ultimate plan which supports 9 devices, will a 10th cause slower speeds or cause a complete connection drop? The drop is across all devices and last between 5 and 15 minutes.

if all are streaming something live, it could be an issue! do all 9 need to be used when you add the 10th?

you'll just have to try it, see how much of a drop, if any.

fwiw: i don't do auto updates on phones, laptops or pc's.

my wifi says i have 7 devices connected, 6 not connected.

ultimate 500 plan, ookla test yesterday showed 523/10 on a 2 year old android.

bearone2 Thank you for your responses.y speeds vary throughout the day on all devices. At 5am, my speed seems to be capped at 50/6 l. And I am also to 500 plan. But usually it's up around 380 to 450 mbps.

i doubt if you're capped unless you're in an apartment complex!
